NAME

       getsigname - choose a signal name in alias list

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mlo.h"
       char ∗getsigname(ptsig)
       losig_list ∗ptsig;

PARAMETER

       ptsig               Pointer to losig_list

DESCRIPTION

       The  getsigname  function  choose the higher hierachical level name of the alias list of a
       signal.  The alias list is pointer to by the NAMECHAIN pointer of the losig structure, and
       contains zero or more names corresponding to the signal.  Since the signal may result from
       a flatten, instance names may be concatenated to the actual signal name.

RETURN VALUE

       getsigname returns the higher hierachy level name, if ptsig->NAMECHAIN is not NULL, else a
       name constructed with the signal INDEX is returned.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mlo.h"
       void print_signame(p)
       losig_list ∗p;
       {
          fprintf(stdout, "signal name : %s\n", getsigname(p));
       }
