The following examples illustrate using the Reg API to register a new user with a specified Second Life first name and last name.  The example code first checks to determine the availability of the selected first and last name, and either registers the user or returns an error message if the name is already taken.

To use a library:
# Remove the -lib suffix from the file name.
# Put the file in the same directory as the application code, such as the examples below.

An externally developed Java implementation of LLSD and RegAPI is available at http://mimuve.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk/llsd-java/src/llsd-java-0.2.1.zip . Code written by Xugu Madison, copyright held by University of St Andrews, and made available under the BSD license. Tested with Java 1.5.
