Hi,

I'm trying to get the name of the surrounding class from within a static
method of the class:

import std.stdio;

void main(string[] args)
  {
    auto o = new SomeClass();
    o.Run();
    SomeClass.StaticRun();
  }

class SomeClass
  {
  public void Run()
    {
      writeln("In Class non-static: ", typeid(typeof(this)));
    }
  public static void StaticRun()
    {
      writeln("In Class static: ", typeid(typeof(??)));
    }
  }


What do I use for "??" above.

John

Considering the class is statically known, typeid(SomeClass)?

Sorry, my simplified example simplified too far. I'd like to put the call
into a mixin template or template, so hard-coding the class name is not an
option.

Have you tried using this? It seems to work for me:

mixin template foo( ) {
     static void baz( ) {
         writeln( typeid(typeof( this ) ) );
     }
}

class A {
     mixin foo!();
}

void main( ) {
     A.baz(); // prints bar.A
}

More info:

http://www.d-programming-language.org/declaration.html#typeof

"typeof(this) will generate the type of what this would be in a non-static  
member function, even if not in a member function."
