Can PL/SQL procedure in Oracle know it’s own name?

Let me explain:

CREATE OR REPLACE procedure some_procedure is     v_procedure_name varchar2(32); begin     v_procedure_name := %%something%%; end; 

After %%something%% executes, variable v_procedure_name should contain ‘SOME_PROCEDURE’. It is also OK if it contains object_id of that procedure, so I can look up name in all_objects.

    Try:

    v_procedure_name := $$PLSQL_UNIT; 

    There’s also $$PLSQL_LINE if you want to know which line number you are on.
