From cursory reading, it seems it doesn’t, at all. It uses compiler-specific predefined values __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ (gcc, clang) or __FUNCSIG__ (MS Visual C++), and doesn’t work on other compilers.

It also has to do work to extract the function name from the char arrays/C strings that those macros expand to.

Reading answers to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4384765/whats-the-differ..., it seems it would have been easier to use the __FUNCTION__ in gcc, but I’m not familiar with that (or the other predefined values) at all, so who knows?
