It is called __func__ in C99 but it is not an object-like macro. The
difference is that it behaves as if it were declared thus.
static const char __func__[] = "function-name";
Those other identifiers can be used in this sort of way.
printf("Error in " __FILE__ " at line " __LINE__ "\n");
But you've got to do something like this for __func__.
printf("Error in %s\n", __func__);
