Call this function to specify the name of the library record. This name is only used within the library and can be a full name and more descriptive than the one that is inserted in the schema.

syntaxSyntax:
DlxLibraryDevice.SetName(name)

Parameters

Parameter Description
name Specify the name to be displayed in the libraries.

Return Value

If the name is set correctly it returns true otherwise it returns false.
