Page 104 of the SDO 2.01 spec says: The XSD names are preserved in the Type and Property. Use the sdo:name override to modify names as an option to remove duplicate names, blank names, or names with special characters. I would expect the SDO property name to be the same as the XSD element name, with the dot. Could one of our Java or C++ SDO experts help shed some light on this? Are dots allowed in SDO names? Did I miss anything in the spec? Do we need to make a fix to the C++ SDO implementation? Any pointer to where to start to fix this?
