Apps Namespace when domain name begins with a number?

[bobalooza]

Hello,

If your domain name begins with a number, say 123abc.com, can that still be used for a namespace for a package (com.123abc.myapp)? Is there some convention to be followed? '123abc' is not a valid java identifier according to Eclipse. I tried 'com._123abc.myapp' but that dies when I tried sending the app to the emulator.

I appreciate your time.

try com_123abc.myapp

Really it doesnt need to be perfect, it's just to avoid naming conflicts within an app & give you a unique package name for the market to ID your app.

Well, com_123abc.myapp definitely functions so I do appreciate your help. I take it from your response that there really isn't any hard-set rule, which is fine as your suggestion seems like it accomplishes all that is needed (it functions and it will be most likely unique).

Thank you for your help.
