CLASS macro in C++

Hello, are there any ways to get name of class with macro like __FUNCTION__ for function name? The only ideas I have is inheriting some base class with pure virtual toString and define the names by hands eash time. Thanks.

Answer 1

Use a macro to define the class:

#define CLASS_WITH_NAME(name)  name { const char * __NAME = #name;

class CLASS_WITH_NAME(class_name) // No "{" here!

Ugly hack but the best I can think of.
