The name of the current function can be retrieved for logging purposes in debug builds with the __func__ predefined identifier:

  void LogFunctionName(const char* name)
    {
    RDebug::Printf("current function: %s\n", name);
    }

Now the function name can be printed as follows:

  LogFunctionName(__func__);
