Hi,

Just can't found information about "this" for static methods.
Can anyone explain how to call current class from static methods?

For example I have some class and I need to call some static method of current class from another static method. I don't like to use full class name for that, but I didn't know what need to use instead of "this".

I sure it must be something like "self". :(

May be my question was not enought clean...
this is example of code:

```
class ClassName {

    public static void function method1()
    {
        // do something
        // and now I need to call other static method
        ClassName.method2(); // What I can use insted of full class name?
        // Like "self.method2()"
    }

    public static void function method2()
    {
        //...
    }
}
```

Simply:
method2();

Anyway I guess you mean public static void method1() { } without "function"

Yep, it's my mistake about "function" :)

Thanks!

Also, typeof(this).method2();

Yes, if you want to distinguish between another function named method2.
