Does using System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod() in a method prevent the JIT compiler from inlining the method?

The answers and comments in the following questions provide conflicting information.

How to get the name of the current method from code

Can you use reflection to find the name of the currently executing method?

It is not mentioned in the documentation as well.

No, the JIT compiler is free to inline the method.

You'll need to add the [MethodImpl(MethodImplOptions.NoInlining)] to any method that calls GetCurrentMethod() to prevent it from being inlined.

If you're only interested in the method name, CallerMemberNameAttribute is much easier to use.
