Java, method name via reflection for logging

Working on a quick logging utility method. Normally I would use Aspects for this but working in the Android SDK where there isnt support for that.

How would I go about grabbing a method name in a generic way using reflection?

Also any performance hit in java with reflection ?

Solution

  • Something like this will probably work:

    Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()[0].getMethodName()
