Identifier seems not to like - in the name

Hello,
it seems that the identifier does not like a - in the name.
I thought it was normal practice to put in the name of your domain there?
If i remove the - then livecode wants to build the classes, if it is in place then it wont build.
Are - not allowed?

I also tried a change it in the keystore file but that does not help.
thanks for any help on this.

Hi sphere,
No it's not a bug.
You can't have ?,: and some others either.
There is a complete list somewhere in these forums.

Hi sphere - yep I would advise you keep the indentifier as plain as possible - once when building for iOS I got a failure when I included a capital letter in the Development Portal's app id (even though I matched it perfectly from within LiveCode).
I've never tried non-standard syntax on an Android identifier but am not very surprised it refused you - if it's of any comfort I don't think it's a LiveCode thing but an iOS and Android thing...
Kind regards
Dave

Thank you Simon and Dave for your comments.
For now i will remove the -.
I did file a bug report to see what comes up, i wrote with it that i don't know if it is a bug or not.
But maybe the identifier should have some more possibilities, perhaps Livecode can't change it when the cause lies with Android or iOS.
But the way URL's are written is also evolving, as numbers are allowed these days also. I don't know if that is the case with identifier too, did not check that.
Thanks.
