Some EAE applications that were developed using EAE's predecessor LINC will have hyphenated ispec names (the Ispec name includes a hyphen). Although it is not possible to create a hyphenated ispec name in EAE, it supports hyphenated names.

AB Suite does not support hyphenated ispec names. If an EAE application has ispecs with hyphenated names, the hyphens must be removed before the application is migrated to AB Suite.
