Subject: [PATCH] ast: Add error when trying to use dash in sh function names
Date: Thu, 08 Jan 2015 10:35:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1420713316.25779.84.camel@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)

A dash character is illegal in function names in sh (but not bash). Since
our shell tasks run under sh and the shell parser is sh based, EXPORT_FUNCTIONS
won't work with class names containing a dash.

We can't change sh, we can ensure the user is warned about the problem 
straight away though.

[YOCTO #7006]
