void foo(int x) {

    string name = getFunctionName();
    assert(name == "foo");

}


Compile time or runtime either is OK.

Thanks

Philippe Sigaud's book[1] had a nice trick of extracting the current
function name with a single template instantiation, but I can't find
it in his template book. There's a "Local Scope Name" chapter, but I
distinctly remember something which was a single template call.. hmm..
it might have changed in recent versions.
