B4J Question .jar naming limitations

[Cableguy]

Hi @Erel

What are the limitations or naming conventions used by the B4J compiler?

In my project, if I name the b4j file myProject-X or myProject.X the compiled filename defaults to "result.jar" instead of the expected "myProject-X.jar" or myProject.X.jar"

It will convert it to result.jar if there is a character that is not: English letter, underscore or digit.

Remember that the jar name is not really important.

Thanks for clarifying

it seems also a space in the name will cause it

A space does not match this rules.

i mistakenly thought space was also considered and english letters, since it's in the base ASCII set...

It is part of ASCII. BUT it is NOT a English LETTER. Only A-Z,a-Z, _ and 0-9 are allowed.
