Name Attribute
Data Type: varchar(256)
4GL Access: RW
The Name attribute specifies the name of the tag.
The name can be split by a delimiter; by default, this is a period (".") character. The suffix name preceding this character (or the full name, if there is no delimiter) is typically a known tag, that is, one for which a tag definition exists.
Suffix names differentiate multiple instances of the same tag, enabling tags to be categorized ("db.", "display.", "class.", etc), or method parameters to be individually characterized (param_name:parameter, param_type:type, etc).
For more information about delimited tag names, see the FieldObject.GetTaggedValues Method.
