Hi Stefan,

There is a MathLink function what you need.

char * MLName(MLINK link)
will return name of the link. Please read mathlink.h, you can find the
definition.

Form the mathlink.h file.

/* MLName returns a pointer to the link's name.
 * Links are generally named when they are created
 * and are based on information that is potentially
 * useful and is available at that time.
 * Do not attempt to deallocate the name's storage
 * through this pointer.  The storage should be
 * considered in read-only memory.
 */
MLDECL( kcharp_ct, MLName,    ( MLINK mlp));

bye.
