Most of the name allocation programs make use of an RPG program, YALCVNMR1R, to retrieve the last used mnemonic for the object type from a file in the model, YALCVNMRFP. The source for the RPG program is also shipped.

CA 2E ships source code for a number of CL programs that assign names. The source resides in the library Y2SYSRC. These programs provide an Application Program Interface (API) to naming routines. You can modify these programs to achieve any naming convention that fits the constraints of the implementation language.CA 2E checks for duplication and calls the naming programs until they either return a unique name or signal failure by returning blanks.
