'''Caveats''' 
• The prim name attribute is limited to 63 bytes, any string longer then that will be truncated. This truncation does not always happen when the attribute is set or read. 
'''Examples''' 
Listen on channel 10 for a name; check if a prim with that name is part of this object 
{|border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0"
|<source lang="lsl">
integer check_for_prim(string name)
{
integer i = llGetNumberOfPrims();
for (; i >= 0; --i)
{
if (llGetLinkName(i) == name)
{
return TRUE;
}
}
return FALSE;
}
default
{
state_entry()
{
llListen(10, "", llGetOwner(), "");
}
listen(integer chan, string obj, key id, string msg)
{
if (check_for_prim(msg))
{
llOwnerSay("found a linked prim named \"" + msg + "\"");
}
else
{
llOwnerSay("this object does not have any linked prims named \"" + msg + "\"");
}
}
}
