Name Property (Device)

Example 





Gets the device's unique name.
Syntax
public string Name {get;}
'Declaration
 
Public ReadOnly Property Name As String
'Usage
 
Dim instance As Device
Dim value As String
 
value = instance.Name
public string Name {get;}
 get_Name(); 
public:
property String^ Name {
   String^ get();
}

Property Value

The device name.
Remarks
The returned string can be used to uniquely identify a compressor. A program can save this value to persistent storage and use it later with the Devices.IndexOf and Devices.Selection methods to restore the device's selection.
