getting the current line in PL/SLQ functions

Hello everyone,

I would like to know if anyone knows how to programmatically determine the line number of the package at the current point of execution. For all you 'C' programmers out there, this is roughly equivalent to the __LINE__ and __FILE__ macros, which will give the line number and filename of the point at which they are invoked. I would like to use this to help me pass some debugging information from a PL/SQL package back to a Pro*C client over an Oracle pipe. As is, my PL/SQL code is totally ignorant of the current line.

Thanks,
