Retrieving the name of the current function in PHP [duplicate]

Question

Is there a function that can return the name of the current function a program is executing?

Answer 1

Yes, you can get the function's name with the magic constant __FUNCTION__

class foo {   function print_func()   {             echo __FUNCTION__;   }   function print_method()   {             echo __METHOD__;   } }  $obj = new foo(); $obj->print_func();      // Returns: print_func $obj->print_method();    // Returns: foo::print_method
