Allow IDs to begin with a number

See original GitHub issue

Current State: IDs are allowed to begin with a (‘a’…‘z’|‘A’…‘Z’|‘_’).

After implementing this feature: IDs are allowed to begin with (‘a’…‘z’|‘A’…‘Z’|‘_’|‘0’…‘9’). However, to allow separation from e.g. integer, IDs cannot exist solely of numbers.

Examples

3-Axis as int  // Correct
3-Axis2 as int // Correct
5635 as int    // Incorrect
axis as int    // Correct

I agree that most of the compilers don’t allow this. However the Vorto device descriptions should be technology agnostic - and we need a way for specifying these “original” names. Currently LWM2M related models are affected by this constraint. Wouldn’t it make sense to adapt the code generator infrastructure accordingly?

Original names can be put in mappings, e.g. LWM2M Mappings. Processing of these kind of variable names is going to be more complex. Most languages do not support it for good reasons 😃
