JavaScript: Get current function name

Written by

getCallingFunctionName() is the important function here.

function getCallingFunctionName() {
    var re = /function (.*?)\(/
    var s = getFunctionName.caller.toString();
    var m = re.exec( s )
    return m[1];
}

function myCurrentFunction(){
    var func_name = getCallingFunctionName();
    alert(func_name);  //displays “myCurrentFunction”
}

myCurrentFunction();

function getCallingFunctionName() {

var re = /function (.*?)\(/

var s = getFunctionName.caller.toString();

var m = re.exec( s )

return m[1];

}

function myCurrentFunction(){

var func_name = getCallingFunctionName();

alert(func_name); //displays “myCurrentFunction”

}

myCurrentFunction();
