Option to display the line no, function, filename with Writeln and DebugLn?

[vfclists]

Are there some options or macros to display the line number, function name and, filename with Writeln and DebugLn?

Nope, at least not automagically and that i am aware of.

Using $I is a tedious job and does not all that you seem to want.

In case you are able to use it, take a look at GetLineInfo

You can feed that with results from routines like get_pc_addr and get_caller_addr for example.

Create yourself a code template (menu "tools")

for example a template for "d", that contains

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. debugln(['$ProcedureName() ', {$I LINE},|]);

(check "enable macros")

when you enter d followed by ctrl-j in the editor you get the debugln.

ProcedureName() is replaced immediately, if you edit the procedures name later, it is not updated.

Thanks. The LINE requires % signs around it. ie:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. debugln(['$ProcedureName() ', {$I %LINE%},|]);
