I am guessing that you are talking about the getClass() method, and I 
suspect that will not always give you what you want.  Say you have two 
classes, B and D, where D is derived from B.  If you call getClass() 
within one of the methods in class B, but the 'this' object is actually 
of class D, getClass will return D, not B.
