<p>GCC provides three magic variables that hold the name of the current
|
|
function, as a string. The first of these is <code>__func__</code>, which
|
|
is part of the C99 standard:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The identifier <code>__func__</code> is implicitly declared by the translator
|
|
as if, immediately following the opening brace of each function
|
|
definition, the declaration
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">static const char __func__[] = "function-name";
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>appeared, where function-name is the name of the lexically-enclosing
|
|
function. This name is the unadorned name of the function.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><code>__FUNCTION__</code> is another name for <code>__func__</code>, provided for
|
|
backward compatibility with old versions of GCC.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>In C, <code>__PRETTY_FUNCTION__</code> is yet another name for
|
|
<code>__func__</code>. However, in C++, <code>__PRETTY_FUNCTION__</code> contains
|
|
the type signature of the function as well as its bare name. For
|
|
example, this program:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">extern "C" {
|
|
extern int printf (char *, ...);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
class a {
|
|
public:
|
|
void sub (int i)
|
|
{
|
|
printf ("__FUNCTION__ = %s\n", __FUNCTION__);
|
|
printf ("__PRETTY_FUNCTION__ = %s\n", __PRETTY_FUNCTION__);
|
|
}
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
int
|
|
main (void)
|
|
{
|
|
a ax;
|
|
ax.sub (0);
|
|
return 0;
|
|
}
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>gives this output:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">__FUNCTION__ = sub
|
|
__PRETTY_FUNCTION__ = void a::sub(int)
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>These identifiers are variables, not preprocessor macros, and may not
|
|
be used to initialize <code>char</code> arrays or be concatenated with other string
|
|
literals.
