Output filename and line number

[sleeping]

Using PHP 4.1.2, is there a function that allows you to print the file line number and the filename where the function is called?

I'd like to have an error reporting tool in the likes of :


// (file lang.php)

24 | switch($language)
25 | {
26 | case 'en' :
27 | // do something
28 | break ;
29 | case 'fr' :
30 | // do something
31 | break ;
32 | default:
33 | print "No language selected in " . print_file_name() . " on line " . print_line_number() . "<BR>\n";


The output would then be :


No language selected in lang.php on line 33


Is such a thing possible in PHP?
