from inspect import getframeinfo,currentframe

class test(object):
    def a_method(self,this,that):
        print getframeinfo(currentframe())[2]


If you *really* have about 100 functions or methods you want to print
their names, don't copy and paste this all over the place; use a
decorator instead so that you can just write:

class test(object):
    @print_name
    def a_method(self,this,that):
        pass

    @print_name
    def b_method(self,this,that):
        pass

The definition of print_name is left as an exercise to the reader.

HTH,
