## C Declaration

        tibemsDestination destination,
        char* name,
        tibems_int name_len );

## COBOL Call

    CALL "tibemsDestination_GetName"
         USING BY VALUE destination,
               BY REFERENCE name,
               BY VALUE name-len
               RETURNING tibems-status

## Parameters

Parameter | Description
--- | ---
`destination` | Get the name of this destination.
`name` | The function copies the name to this location.
`name_len` | Length of the name buffer.

## Remarks

A null character terminates the copied name string.

Your program must allocate the name buffer, and pass its length to the function. If the length of the name is greater than the size of the buffer provided, the entire destination name may not be copied. The buffer size is determined by the `TIBEMS_DESTINATION_MAX` constant. Constants such as `TIBEMS_DESTINATION_MAX` are located in the `tibems/types.h` header file.
