I need help with Sahi syntax to obtain function name

rj412

/*

---

SOURCE
Callme();

function Callme (){

//var $funcName = arguments.callee.toString();
var $funcName = arguments.callee.caller.name.toString();
//var $funcName = document.activeElement.name.toString();

_alert($funcName);
}

---

*/

Whats wrong with above code?

Hi,

If you want the output to be "Callme", you need

var $funcName = arguments.callee.name;

thanks Narayan.
this works; you may close this topic.

I needed this for troubleshooting when dealing with a lot functions.
I'm surprise this is not provided out the box for logging purposes.

/*

---

SOURCE

---

*/
CallMe();

function CallMe() {
logFunctionName ( argument.callee.name) ;

Call_Another_Function_2 ();
}

function Call_Another_Function_2 () {
logFunctionName ( argument.callee.name) ;

//Call_Another_Function_3 ();
}

/* --- Placed in Common Sah --- */
function logFunctionName ($funcName) {
_log("*********** " +$funcName " ************")
}

Hi,

We have been working on a solution for this.

In the next build, errors and failures will automatically be shown with a trace of function calls.
You can also explicitly get the stack trace using _stackTrace();

I can send you an early release if you would like.
