Print property name (not what you would think) [duplicate]

Question

This is a cursory question I can't quite answer.

The main program

class Program{
    static void Main(string[] args){
        Console.WriteLine("Begin");
        var myClass = new MyClass();
        Util.Print(myClass.Id);
        Util.Print(myClass.Server);
        Util.Print(myClass.Ping);
        Console.WriteLine("End");
    }   
}

How do I implement the Util.Print method to get this output to the console:

Begin
Id
Server
Ping
End

Assuming you don't want to use strings, the most common answer is via an Expression - essentially emulating the missing infoof; you would have to use something like:

    Console.WriteLine("Begin");
    var myClass = new MyClass();
    Util.Print(() => myClass.Id);
    Util.Print(() => myClass.Server);
    Util.Print(() => myClass.Ping);
    Console.WriteLine("End");

Assuming they are all properties/fields (edit added method-call support):

 public static class Util
{
    public static void Print<T>(Expression<Func<T>> expr)
    {
        WriteExpression(expr);
    }
    public static void Print(Expression<Action> expr) // for "void" methods
    {
        WriteExpression(expr);
    }
    private static void WriteExpression(Expression expr)
    {
        LambdaExpression lambda = (LambdaExpression)expr;
        switch (lambda.Body.NodeType)
        {
            case ExpressionType.MemberAccess:
                Console.WriteLine(((MemberExpression)lambda.Body)
                    .Member.Name);
                break;
            case ExpressionType.Call:
                Console.WriteLine(((MethodCallExpression)lambda.Body)
                    .Method.Name);
                break;
            default:
                throw new NotSupportedException();
        }
    }
}

In addition to Marc's answer: here is an article which explains several ways to do what you want to do (one such method uses expressions).
