The following works, but only on implementations which provide stack frame support. As the docs kindly point out: "...this isn't guaranteed to exist in all implementations of Python." Example code: import inspect def foo(): '''Print my own name.''' frame_info = inspect.getframeinfo(inspect.currentframe()) print(frame_info.function) foo() That said, there's probably a better way to solve whatever bigger problem you're trying solve. -Modulok- _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
