Handling reserved characters in property names about specflow.assist.dynamic HOT 7 CLOSED

Ok, after talking this over with @darrencauthon I think I will do the simplest possible thing for now; just strip the reserved chars out.

Here's two scenarios that describes the functionality:

Scenario: Using reserved C# characters in column names
    When I create a dynamic instance from this table
        | C$harp n@me (with strange chars) |
        | A value | 
    Then the CharpNmeWithStrangeChars property should equal 'A value'

Scenario: Only alfa numeric characters, plus underscore is allowed in variable names
       When I create a dynamic instance from this table
        | My_Nice_Variable | My $$ Variable (needs clean up) |
        | A value |  Another value |
    Then the My_Nice_Variable property should equal 'A value'
           And the MyVariableNeedsCleanUp property should equal 'Another value'

Scenario: Using only reserved C# characters in column names
    When I create a dynamic instance from this table
        | $@() |
        | A value | 
    Then an exception with a nice error message about the property only containing reserved chars should be thrown

I will not do the configuration, since this feature is just how the tool behaves. It will go into the documentation instead.

Here's some C-sharp to do the replacement stuff:

using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
string pattern = @"[^a-zA-Z0-9_]";
string replacement = "";
string input = "%§@@@@m";
string result = Regex.Replace(input, pattern, replacement);
Console.WriteLine(result);

Thanks Darren!
And thanks for the help.

Fun fact; wrote it from a hospital bed (nasty kidney infection).
First time for me :)

Hope you get out of there soon.

Programming puts a silver lining in any down time! So long as we can think and move our fingers, we can be productive. :)

Word!

I'm ok. Get out on Friday. Long IV treatment. That's the reason I'm here.
