nodeService.createNode no entering the node name

[xsp]

Hi,

Is there a way to not have to set the node name when creating an item in java using nodeService.createNode() method? …I would like the system to leave the name as with its node id, so I do not have to enter a name.

…I know I can generate a random id and set it as the name, …but it would be better at least having the same as the id.

thanks

Yes.   Just don't specify prop_name.

However there may be a constraint depending upon the type of node you are crating.    And you will upset alfresco share and alfresco explorer.
