Question

Is it possible to use the '$' ASCII character on the OGC Geopackage field names?


I need to use the ASCII 36 ($) character in the name of attributes on a geopackage file. In the direct way is it impossible, because the Use Attribute pane of the Feature Writer for geopackage changes the '$' char into a '_'; same story using an opportune schema in 'Dynamic Schema Definition'.

Is this a FME bug? Is there a way to workaround this issue?

@nicolap​ At the moment there is no straight forward workaround. @david_r​  gave a temporary workaround in an answer at the very end of this discussion. Please vote on the Idea and add any comments on your use case.

My case involves the writer so the suggested idea can not be applied. For the moment I solved manually renaming the attribute names in the geopackage.
