How to get name of any class?

Question

I am trying to make an extension function for logging. I want to send Any as a parameter and get its name. But can not find how to get name of Any class. Have any idea about it?

fun MainActivity.log(claz: Objects,any: Any){
    Log.d("Main", claz.name +  any.toString())
}

Answer 1

val c = String::class
println(c.simpleName)

$ String

• Class References
• KClass

Answer 2

Use yourClassInstance::class.simpleName:

fun MainActivity.log(claz: Objects, any: Any){
    Log.d("Main", "${claz::class.simpleName} ${any::class.simpleName}")
}
