Obj-C introspection: How can a method reference it's own selector?

This applies to Objective-C, is there a preprocessor macro or something to get the SEL value of the current selector? Specifically I'm looking for something like:

-(void) someSelector
{
    SEL mySelector = __CURRENT_SELECTOR__;
    NSLog(@"I'm in selector %@",NSStringFromSelector(mySelector));
}

it's kinda like the __FILE__ macro but this to obtain the current selector. Pretty useful to pass it to others while not worrying to update it if the selector name is changed.

No correct solution
