Can we get this please? It's so simple and would be terribly useful.
Can someone explain what __FUNCTION__ would do in a little more detail? I
feel
like the two posts of this thread so far are talking in secret
__FUNCTION__-dealer
code.
void foofunc()
{
Stdout.formatln("{}", __FUNCTION__);
}
Output:
foofunc
Ie, basically the same as __FILE__ and __LINE__ and useful in the same ways.
I think instead of __FUNCTION__ we'll define a much more comprehensive
static reflection facility.
Also, I'd like to be able to do something like:
Reflect.invoke(__FUNCTION__, params);
Yah... and Variant needs to have something similar as well. We know
quite what std.reflect needs to look like, just we want to keep our
fingers out of too many pies at once.
Something funtionally equiveilent to that would aid maitenance of
self-invoking functions (not only recusion, but also func overloads that are
defined in terms of one "primary" overload).
Also would be nice for similar reasons: __CLASS__ (or something similar that
would also work for structs)
Yah.
