[R] get the enclosing function name

2009-12-11 Thread Hao Cen 
Hi,

Is there a way to get the enclosing function name within a function?

For example, I would like to have a function getEnclosingFunctionName().
It works like below

f = function(){
  print(getEnclosingFunctionName())

}


f()  # will print  f


Thanks

Jeff

Try placing this in your function:

Name - match.call()[[1]]

Try this;

f - function()as.character(sys.call())

stop(gettextf('%s' is not implemented yet,
as.character(sys.call(sys.parent())[[1L]])),
call. = FALSE)
environment: namespace:base

HTH,

You confused me at first with enclosing function, but I think you can 
do what you want using something like


f - function() {
  print(sys.call()[[1]])
}

f()
