       object spec

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       char *tt_spec_propname(const char *objid,
                              int n);

DESCRIPTION
       The tt_spec_propname() function returns the nth element of the property
       name list for this object spec.

       The  objid  argument  is  the identifier of the object involved in this
       operation.  The n argument is the item of the list whose element is  to
       be returned.  The list numbering begins with zero.

       property name.  If there are n properties or  less,  tt_spec_propname()
       returns  NULL.   The application can use tt_ptr_error(3) to extract one
       of the following Tt_status values from the returned pointer:

                  The ToolTalk service could not access the specified ToolTalk

                  an existing object spec.
