For this you'll need a at least a partial C++ parser. That's not possible to
achieve with the preprocessor, because it has no context information about
the preprcessed C++ token stream - it cares for macros and directives only.
Some compilers have a feature though, which allows you to get at the current
function name, though. Perhaps this would be of any help for you?
