Question How to get Class name of object?

Hi there!

I really want to know how to get a class name of object

I tried to use..
Object MyObject= AssetDatabase.LoadAssetAtPath<Object>("script path");

to load a script asset to an Object, and then I use
MyObject.GetType().Name

I really want to see, what a class of that script,
But, I got "MonoScript"
and this is not a class name of that file

e.g. if
public class TestScript{

}

actually, it must return "TestScript" Not "MonoScript"

anyone has any ideas?

Thanks!!!

 

Well you're getting MonoScript because that's what you're loading, a monoscript asset.

Maybe read the docs on mono script: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/MonoScript.html

Remember your script files are just text assets. They don't actually represent instances of a class or similar.

Maybe you should post what you're actually trying to do, rather than these questions that make me think you're going down the wrong path.

Also use code tags mate.

 

Code (CSharp):

1. Debug.Log(this.GetType().FullName);

or

Code (CSharp):

1. Debug.Log(this.GetType().ToString());

The name of your script, it is prefixed with the namespace if you have one

Type.FullName Property (System) | Microsoft Learn

yeah

 

Thanks everyone! I will try.

 

nameof(SomeType) also works if you know the type at compile time.

 

Oh, I used to found text asset once,
so the only way is, I have to use ReadAllLine to get all string
and finding a "class" and after it must be a class name Right?

 

Dude, look at the first property in the docs for Monoscript.

You're over-complicating things and missing the most obvious solutions.
