Knowing the method from before_filter

I would like to know the method that will be called from before_filter, is it possible?

for example

class TestController < ApplicationController

before_filter :tell_method_name

protected def tell_method_name #tell the name of the method that is going to be called end

def index ... end

end

so if i call http://localhost:3000/test, it will call tell_method_name and display "index", how can i do it in here?

You can use action_name to get the name of the current action.
