Stewart. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-13 10:12:54] sniper@php.net These already exist in PHP 4.3.0-dev: NEWS: - Added __FUNCTION__ and __CLASS__ constants. (Jani, Zend Engine) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-13 10:04:52] stewart@nameless-uk.com Hi, Basically, this would follow along the same lines as __FILE__ and __LINE__, these macros would return the current function and class -- especially usefull for quick debugging of inherited classes. It would also be incredibly usefull to be able to get the details of the calling function, perhaps via __CALLING_*__, just to make add a more professional edge to custom classes. Keep up the good work! Stewart. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=17743&edit=1
