It's good. But I think it should be implement by the DMD compiler,
just like
__FILE__ and __LINE__. __FUNCTION__ should be the base D language
syntax same as
__FILE__, __LINE__, in C99, they're all the compiler's things to get
these and the
compiler do these more easily than any library.
I completely agree, but Walter and Andrei's argument against it is -
where does it end? Do we need __PACKAGE__, __MODULE__, __TYPE__,
__TEMPLATE__, etc. etc. etc.? And I agree with them too - but you
All we need is a __HERE__, which expands into a struct literal that
provides module, filename, etc. fields. It even can be linked to the
next enclosing scope to walk upwards nested functions and types.
__FILE__ becomes __HERE__.filename,
__LINE__ becomes __HERE__.line
IIRC, it was previously proposed it as __SCOPE__
