When debug, I how to out put the name of the function.

[Peng Yu]

For example, I have a function called test, I want to output the name
of the function. Is there any macro for it?

Peng

int test(){
....
cout << the name of the funcion

}

cout << "test()";

No, there is no macro in the language, although some compilers do provide
__PRETTY_FUNCTION__ or something of that sort.

I think there is a mechanism for this in C99 standard, is there any thought
about putting it in the next C++ standard as well?

Thanks,

C99 has __func__, which has type 'const char[]'. There is a proposal
(n1650) that... [www.open-std.org is sooooo sloooooow today]... that...
probably mentions __func__, I have no patience to wait for that server
to send me back the article.
