Is there a type of __THIS__ construct similar to __FILE__ and

Something that returns the current this ptr if it exists, null
otherwise.
Log(string filename = __FILE__, Object obj = __THIS__)()

There is no 'this' pointer unless you are calling a member
function on an aggregate, so you can never have one that is
null.
Oh, perhaps I misunderstood your question. Do you meant this:
class Foo() {
void bar() { Log(); } // Pass reference to Foo instance
}
void doSomething() { Log(); } // Null reference
If so, the answer is no. And I don't see how that could work as a
compile time parameter, given that the reference itself is a
runtime value.
