Naming Conventions

Please refer to the following rules for naming columns, variables, tables, namespaces and partitions:

Column Names

Column names cannot be reserved words. These include Java-reserved words, such as "double", "null", "int", and others (see full list), as well as the following Deephaven -reserved words: "in", "not", "i" and "k".

Column names must begin with a letter (a-z, A-Z), or the underscore character "_"; and subsequent characters may be letters, digits or underscore characters. Spaces, dollar signs and other special characters are not allowed.

Query Variable Names

Query variable names follow the same rules as column names. See above.

Table and Namespace Names

Table and namespace names must start with a letter (a-z, A-Z) or an underscore "_". Subsequent characters can be letters, numbers, underscores, hyphens "-", the plus sign "+" and the at sign "@".

Partition Names

Partition names follow the same rules as table and namespace names (see above). However, partition names may also start with a number.
