Naming Convention Error in SCADAPack Workbench - Error Message when Creating Project

When creating a new project, the system enforces specific naming rules to ensure consistency and compatibility. If these rules are not followed, you may encounter the following error:

Error: "Names must start with a letter and may include letters, digits, and single underscore characters. The final character must be a letter or digit—names cannot end with an underscore. Parameter name: name."

Key Naming Guidelines

  • Project names must begin with a letter.
  • Allowed characters include:
    • Letters (A–Z, a–z)
    • Digits (0–9)
    • Single underscores (_)
  • The last character must be a letter or digit.
  • Underscores cannot be used at the end of the name.
  • Special characters (e.g., ., @, #, etc.) are not allowed when creating a project.

Importing Projects

While creating a project enforces strict naming rules, the Workbench does allow importing projects that contain special characters (such as a period "." or others) in their names. However, these characters are not permitted when naming a project during creation.
