C＋＋库研究笔记——函数名的宏定义

6.47 Function Names as Strings：http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Function-Names.html

GCC provides three magic variables that hold the name of the current function, as a string. The first of these is __func__, which is part of the C99 standard:

The identifier __func__ is implicitly declared by the translator as if, immediately following the opening brace of each function definition, the declaration

     static const char __func__[] = "function-name";

appeared, where function-name is the name of the lexically-enclosing function. This name is the unadorned name of the function.

__FUNCTION__ is another name for __func__. Older versions of GCC recognize only this name. However, it is not standardized. For maximum portability, we recommend you use __func__, but provide a fallback definition with the preprocessor:

     #if __STDC_VERSION__ < 199901L
     # if __GNUC__ >= 2
     #  define __func__ __FUNCTION__
     # else
     #  define __func__ "<unknown>"
     # endif
     #endif

In C, __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ is yet another name for __func__. However, in C++, __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ contains the type signature of the function as well as its bare name. For example, this program:

     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;
     }

gives this output:

     __FUNCTION__ = sub
     __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ = void a::sub(int)

These identifiers are not preprocessor macros. In GCC 3.3 and earlier, in C only, __FUNCTION__ and __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ were treated as string literals; they could be used to initialize char arrays, and they could be concatenated with other string literals. GCC 3.4 and later treat them as variables, like __func__. In C++, __FUNCTION__ and __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ have always been variables.

但是，根据，__FUNCTION__更保险？

Macro / keyword which can be used to print out method name?

• On GCC you can use __FUNCTION__ and __PRETTY_FUNCTION__.
• On MSVC you can use __FUNCSIG__ and __FUNCTION__.

simple.c: In function `main':
simple.c:8: warning: concatenation of string literals with
__FUNCTION__ is deprecated

Print the function name using __FUNCTION__ macro

总结各资料：

最好使用__func__？

注：__func__是内直变量？？

Since __func__ is not a string literal, you can't concatenate it with
another string literal, but what you can do is

printf("%s %s\n", __func__, __FILE__);
