SYNOPSIS
cc [flag ...] file ...-lwsreg [library ...]
#include <wsreg.h>
int wsreg_set_unique_name(Wsreg_component *comp, const char *unique_name);

DESCRIPTION
The wsreg_set_unique_name() function sets the unique name specified by unique_name in the component specified by comp. Every component

The wsreg_get_unique_name() function gets the unique name string from the component specified by comp. The resulting string must be
released by the caller.

The wsreg_set_unique_name() function returns a non-zero value if the unique name was set correctly; otherwise it returns 0.
