Name Property

Summary

Gets the compressor's unique name.

Syntax
C#
VB
C++
public string Name { get; } 
Public ReadOnly Property Name As String 
public: 
property String^ Name { 
   String^ get(); 
} 

Property Value

A string value of the compressor name.

Remarks

The returned string can be used to uniquely identify a compressor. A program can save this value to persistent storage and use it later with the Compressors.IndexOf and Compressors.Selection methods to restore the compressor's selection.

Example
C#
VB
