Chapter 3 The Application Description Language
3.2 Identifiers
An identifier is the name of a variable, class, method, or built-in function. It must begin with a letter and consist of a sequence containing only letters, digits, or the underscore character ( _ ). Case is significant. Identifiers can possess an arbitrary number of characters, and at least the first 32 characters are distinguishable. Some ADL implementations may consider more than 32 characters significant. If a particular implementation considers the first n(
) characters significant, and two identifiers differ only after the nth character, the implementation considers them identical.
