With GCC, you can use:
__FILE__
__LINE__
__FUNCTION__

What I usually do is something like:
#define DEBUG qDebug() << __FILE__ << __LINE__ << __FUNCTION__

then you can use it like
DEBUG;

or

DEBUG << "some messages" << some_var;

When I use emacs, I format the debug message like this 
"file.cpp:function():666", so that you can jump to the code from the 
message in the buffer.
Unfortunately I don't know any equivalent functionalities for 
QtCreator, if anyone knows...
