Name Attribute
Almost every element in a Peach Pit file supports the name attribute. Names are used for readability and referencing other elements in a Pit file.
Names should not contain punctuation, in particular period (.), slash (\\), or colon (:) as they have special meaning for references.
Names are case sensitive and must be unique at the current scope level.
Examples
Correct:
The following example has unique names for each element.
<Block name="Header">
<Number name="Value1" size="8"/>
<Number name="Value2" size="8"/>
<Number name="Value3" size="8"/>
<Number name="Value4" size="8"/>
</Block>
The following example does not provide names for all values which is also okay.
<Block name="Header">
<Number size="8"/>
<Number size="8"/>
<Number size="8"/>
<Number size="8"/>
</Block>
Incorrect:
The following has duplicate names at the same document level. This will cause an error.
<Block name="Header">
<Number name="Value" size="8"/>
<Number name="Value" size="8"/>
<Number name="Value" size="8"/>
<Number name="Value" size="8"/>
</Block>
