in C#, how can i get the string name from an object

i have an object that is something like this with a full namespace.

MyDomainModel.Model.Application

i want to do something like this in a generic function so that it will just display "Application" (without the rest of the namepace

I need to do this in a function that passes in a generic so i tried to do this:

typeof(T).ToString()

but that didn't work. any thoughts?

typeof(T).Name is what you are looking for.

The typeof operator returns a Type object, which offers lots of information on the type.
