GetType () returns a subclass of Type in the constructor of the superclass

Question

I have three classes: ClassA, ClassB, ClassC.

ClassCextends ClassB, which in turn extends ClassA.

When I call GetType () from the constructor ClassA, .net returns a type ClassC. I am confusing because this happens in code that worked for a while and which I did not touch at that time. Was there a fix for .net that changed the behavior of GetType ()? I doubt it. My only thought is that this has anything to do with xUnit, the testing platform used?

Answer 4

As far as I remember, GetType () always returned the type of the instance, not the base class, regardless of where it is called.
