__LINE__ and __FILE__ functionality in Python?

[Joakim Hove]

Hello,

i have simple[1] function like this:

   def log_msg(msg , file , line):
       print "%s:%s   %s" % (file,line,msg)

the file and line arguments should be the filename and linenumber of
the source file where the function is called. If this were C I would
have used the __FILE__ and __LINE__ macros as:

  log_msg(msg , __FILE__ , __LINE__)

Is there a way to emulate this behaviour in Python?


Best Regards

[1]: It is not *that* simple, but you get the point.
