id_is_valid
Description:
public static bool id_is_valid (
string application_id)
Checks if application_id is a valid application identifier.
A valid ID is required for calls to Application and
set_application_id.
For convenience, the restrictions on application identifiers are reproduced here:
- Application identifiers must contain only the ASCII characters "A-Z[0-9]_-." and must not begin with a digit.
- Application identifiers must contain at least one '.' (period) character (and thus at least three elements).
- Application identifiers must not begin or end with a '.' (period) character.
- Application identifiers must not contain consecutive '.' (period) characters.
- Application identifiers must not exceed 255 characters.
Parameters:
| application_id |
a potential application identifier
|
Returns:
|
true if application_id is valid
