Get fully qualified method name in scala macros - scala

Question

I use Scala macros and match Apply and I would like to get fully qualified name of the function which is called.
Examples:
println("") -> scala.Predef.println
scala.Predef.println("") -> scala.Predef.println
class Abc {
def met(): Unit = ???
}
case class X {
def met(): Unit = ???
def abc(): Abc = ???
}
val a = new Abc()
val x = new Abc()
a.met() -> Abc.met
new Abc().met() -> Abc.met
X() -> X.apply
X().met() -> X.met
x.met() -> X.met
x.abc.met() -> Abc.met
On the left side is what I have in code and on the right side after arrow is what I want to get. Is it possible? And how?

Here is the macro:
import scala.language.experimental.macros
import scala.reflect.macros.blackbox
object ExampleMacro {
final val useFullyQualifiedName = false
def methodName(param: Any): String = macro debugParameters_Impl
def debugParameters_Impl(c: blackbox.Context)(param: c.Expr[Any]): c.Expr[String] = {
import c.universe._
param.tree match {
case Apply(Select(t, TermName(methodName)), _) =>
val baseClass = t.tpe.resultType.baseClasses.head // there may be a better way than this line
val className = if (useFullyQualifiedName) baseClass.fullName else baseClass.name
c.Expr[String](Literal(Constant(className + "." + methodName)))
case _ => sys.error("Not a method call: " + show(param.tree))
}
}
}
Usage of the macro:
object Main {
def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
class Abc {
def met(): Unit = ???
}
case class X() {
def met(): Unit = ???
def abc(): Abc = ???
}
val a = new Abc()
val x = X()
import sk.ygor.stackoverflow.q53326545.macros.ExampleMacro.methodName
println(methodName(Main.main(Array("foo", "bar"))))
println(methodName(a.met()))
println(methodName(new Abc().met()))
println(methodName(X()))
println(methodName(X().met()))
println(methodName(x.met()))
println(methodName(x.abc().met()))
println(methodName("a".getClass))
}
}
Source code for this example contains following:
it is a multi module SBT project, because macros have to be in a separate compilation unit than classes, which use the macro
macro modules depends explicitly on libraryDependencies += "org.scala-lang" % "scala-reflect" % scalaVersion.value,
