>>Could be. But in that case there would be no point in looping. If the initial BaseType wasn't object then you'd know it was a child class.

>So, just so I understand, can you explain more on the suggesting change you mentioned? Basically, what would be a scenario of failure with the actual loop condition with that original code compare to what you suggest.

Your original code would always return true since the DeclaringType would never be of type object - i.e. it would return true if the method implementation was only in the root class and not being overridden.....
