this will easily print whatever method it is put in...

NSLog(@"%s", __PRETTY_FUNCTION__);

I use the following:

NSLog(@"[%@ %@]", NSStringFromClass([self class]), NSStringFromSelector(_cmd));

This will dynamically generate both the class name and method name similar to __func__. If you're using Xcode 3.x, what I did was map Command-Option-L to the following user script that inserts a standard logging call like above:

NSLog(@"the method is %s", __func__);

__func__ is a builtin macro that expands to the current function or class+method name (it's a standard C string, hence the %s formatter instead of %@).
