Description
I'd like to be able to use dashes (and other special characters) in IDs for XML elements:
<Alloy>
<Label id="my-label" />
</Alloy>
Which currently compiles to this syntax error:
$.__views.my - label = Ti.UI.createLabel({
id: "my-label"
});
Which should become:
$.__views["my-label"] = Ti.UI.createLabel({
id: "my-label"
});
Notes:
* Generated code for adding child views, event listeners and so on should also use the bracket notation for these type of IDs.
* Probably it's best to always use this notation and let Uglify optimise where possible.
* Special characters in classes already work fine.
