How to know which project is using another project during runtime
I have two projects (A and B) using a common shared project (C). In this shared project I need to know which project A or B is using C during runtime.
I have tried to find out if the caller object belongs to A or B but I still don't know if this is possible or if there is a better solution.

Sounds like an XY problem to me.

That's a design smell. A library shouldn't have to know who calls it. If you want to invoke different behavior, you could do so using a boolean in the method you call:isProjectA
. You can then rename it according to the use case, so instead ofisProjectA
you could name itcalculatePriceExcludingSalesTax
, or after whatever different behavior you want.

Is project B a different application or is this code that all compiles and runs together? We need to see the project outline and know what A, B, and C represent. This typically isn't something you need to worry about though.
