ObjectName

The function returns the name of the corresponding object by its index in the objects list.

string  ObjectName(
   int   object_index   // object index
   );

Parameters

object_index

[in] Object index. This value must be greater or equal to 0 and less than ObjectsTotal().

Return Value

Name of the object is returned in case of success. To get the detailed error information, one has to call the GetLastError() function.
