Naming restrictions for extensions

PolicyCenter uses the names of extensions as the basis for several other internally-generated structures, such as database elements and Java classes. Because of this, it is important that you adhere to the naming requirements and guidelines described in this section.

Important: Deviations from these guidelines can result in product errors or unexpected behavior.

An extension name cannot start with a number; it must start with a letter. Other than that, an extension name can contain letters, numbers, or underscores (_). Guidewire does not permit any other characters in extension names.
