String methodName =Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()[1].getMethodName();
System.out.println("methodName = " + methodName);

这种方法的错误之处在于:

class Example {
    FileOutputStream fileOutputStream;

    public Example() {
        //System.out.println("Example.Example()");

        debug("Example.Example()",false); // toggle

        try {
            fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream("debug.txt");
        } catch (Exception exception) {
             debug(exception + Calendar.getInstance().getTime());
        }
    }

    private boolean was911AnInsideJob() {
        System.out.println("Example.was911AnInsideJob()");
        return true;
    }

    public boolean shouldGWBushBeImpeached(){
        System.out.println("Example.shouldGWBushBeImpeached()");
        return true;
    }

    public void setPunishment(int yearsInJail){
        debug("Server.setPunishment(int yearsInJail=" + yearsInJail + ")",true);
    }
}

在人们疯狂地使用System.out.println(…)之前，你总是可以，也应该，创建一些方法，这样输出就可以被重定向，例如:

    private void debug (Object object) {
        debug(object,true);
    }

    private void dedub(Object object, boolean debug) {
        if (debug) {
            System.out.println(object);

            // you can also write to a file but make sure the output stream
            // ISN'T opened every time debug(Object object) is called

            fileOutputStream.write(object.toString().getBytes());
        }
    }

这是对virgo47的答案(如上)的扩展。

它提供了一些静态方法来获取当前和调用类/方法名。

这可以使用StackWalker自Java 9。

public static String getCurrentMethodName() {
    return StackWalker.getInstance()
                      .walk(s -> s.skip(1).findFirst())
                      .get()
                      .getMethodName();
}

public static String getCallerMethodName() {
    return StackWalker.getInstance()
                      .walk(s -> s.skip(2).findFirst())
                      .get()
                      .getMethodName();
}

StackWalker被设计成懒惰的，所以它可能比Thread更有效。getStackTrace，它为整个调用堆栈急切地创建一个数组。更多信息请参见JEP。

 public class SomeClass {
   public void foo(){
      class Local {};
      String name = Local.class.getEnclosingMethod().getName();
   }
 }

Name的值为foo。

public static String getCurrentMethodName() {
        return Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()[2].getClassName() + "." + Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()[2].getMethodName();
    }
