RE: [flexcoders] Grabbing the name of the currently executing function

[Clint Modien]

Ya… I guess I could workaround it by hardcoding a variable in the function with the function name… that’s easiest…   I was hoping to create some generic logging/tracing and error handling code… that would use a a variable for className.functionName.     From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcoders@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Jeremy Lu Sent: Friday, June 30, 2006 11:56 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Grabbing the name of the currently executing function   I'm pretty sure last time I heard about this the answer is "NO", you can't. but why do you need the name of the function ? maybe there are other workarounds.
