Description
I couldn't find this any where in the documentation, but DllStructCreate and the related functions do have a limit to what characters can be used for an element name. So far, we found the following letters are allowed:
A-Z,a-z,0-9
(There are more, but for brevity sake, I'll only list these.)
I had 2 questions about this limit. Why does the element names not allow underscores while C structs allow them for names, and can we add these limits to the DllStructCreate (and possibly others) help entries? A few DllStructs I have been trying to use from MSDN contain underscores, and it took some experimenting to discover why my code kept failing with improper Struct variables, until I finally took out the underscores from the names on a hunch.
The forum post where I asked about this is here:
