While this might sound interesting and useful for debugging, there are better ways to go about this (as comments after the article explain). Especially so, when it's not appropriate to provide an arbitrary ToString method with debug mumbojumbo.

Try the Sustem.Diagnostics.DebuggerDisplayAttribute instead.

e.g.
[DebuggerDisplay("Name: {Name} ID: {ID}")]
public class MyClass {...
