Tell me more ×  Is it possible for a method to know the type of
the method it is called under? So for example in the following
object orientated psuedo code:  Instance io = new
InstanceSubclass();  Is there a language that allows doStuff()
to know that it was called as an Instance?  The question arose
out of the fact the Java does not provide any kind of support
for interface name clashes, for example if you create a class
that implements interfaces A and B that both have a method
signature such as void doWork() would it be possible for the
body of doWork() to do something similar to the following :
public void doWork() {     Class<?> context =
getMethodCallContext();     if(context == InterfaceA.class) {
else if(context == InterfaceB.class) {     else {         //
Shenanigans and error handling  I am not planning to write any
code that takes advantage of this feature as to do so reeks of
an anti-pattern waiting to happen, I only want to know if it CAN
be done, if so which languages permit it?  share|imp
