             Summary: Build failure on Android with ID or names starting with digits
                 Key: CB-5465
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5465
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Android
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
            Reporter: Simon Males


It is not possible to build Android if the ID or application name begins with a digit. As per Java identifiers (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se7/html/jls-3.html#jls-3.8):

{noformat}
An identifier is an unlimited-length sequence of Java letters and Java digits, the first of which must be a Java letter.
{noformat}

Though this is not a problem for iOS.

I believe it should be flagged to the user upon creation that it is not supported.

Though is does limit the ability of creating an application with the name '1Password' (for example).

{noformat}
$ cordova create numbers com.12345.app "12345"
$ cd numbers/
$ cordova platform add android
$ cordova build android
{noformat}
