const char* GetNodeName_bn ( const node_bn*  node )

Returns a C character string which is the name of node.

You can count on the name to be present, and to be a legal IDname, so it is guaranteed to be NAME_MAX_ns (30) or fewer characters (not including terminating 0).

Don't confuse this with the "title" of node, which is available by GetNodeTitle_bn.

If you need the string to persist, make a copy of the string returned, since its contents may become invalid after further calls to Netica API. Do not try to directly modify or free the string returned.
