*ALIASNAME (GETMODE)

*ALIASNAME={alias}

The *ALIASNAME keyword retrieves the PL/B Linux program named stored and used by the runtime to identify currently loaded programs. An alias name is included with a program name if it was declared as EXTERNAL.

{alias} is a previously defined Character String Variable that receives the alias name.

If the {alias} variable is not large enough to contain the name, the EOS flag is set.
