## Get 'name' attribute

### Description

Get 'name' attribute for given object, this method can be used for almost all objects implemented in KEGGgraph package to extract their name slot. See manual pages of individual objects for examples.

### Methods

object = "KEGGEdgeSubType"
  An object of `KEGGEdgeSubType-class`
object = "KEGGNode"
  An object of `KEGGNode-class`
object = "KEGGPathway"
  An object of `KEGGPathway-class`
object = "KEGGPathwayInfo"
  An object of `KEGGPathwayInfo-class`
object = "KEGGReaction"

### Examples

    sfile <- system.file("extdata/hsa04010.xml",package="KEGGgraph")
    pathway <- parseKGML(sfile)

    ## get pathway name
    getName(pathway)

    ## get node name
    nodes <- nodes(pathway)
    getName(nodes[[2]])

    ## get edge name: it is not informative since the nodes are identified
    ## with file-dependent indices
    edges <- edges(pathway)
    getName(edges[[7]])

    ## get subtype name
    subtype <- getSubtype(edges[[2]])[[1]]
    getName(subtype)
