Can Stopwatch be used in production code?

February 8, 2023 by Tarik

Under the hood, pretty much all Stopwatch does is wrap QueryPerformanceCounter. As I understand it, Stopwatch is there to provide access to the high-resolution timer – if you need this resolution in production code I don’t see anything wrong with using it.

How can I find the method that called the current method?

Try this: using System.Diagnostics; // Get call stack StackTrace stackTrace = new StackTrace(); // Get calling method name Console.WriteLine(stackTrace.GetFrame(1).GetMethod().Name); one-liner: (new System.Diagnostics.StackTrace()).GetFrame(1).GetMethod().Name It is from Get Calling Method using Reflection [C#].
