It seems that the functions described in

do not answer my question :
"how to get the name of the current function ?"

It is currently not possible.

There is no __FUNCTION__ like you have in C.
I was also quite interested by this feature a long time ago.
For loggers it is quite useful.

I cannot find the thread back, I don't know where to search the archives
of caml-list.
Gabriel Scherer mentioned there is not always a function name since
they can be inlined by the compiler, if I remember correctly.

I hope the argument of the inlining case is not serious, is it ?

Best,
Gustave
