Suppress "Identifier not allowed in Android"

For my application written in Kotlin I use backticked method names for tests, like this:

fun `API login error - don't save token or user`() {

It works, the tests compile and work without a problem, but Lint in Android Studio is marking those methods as error with message Identifier not allowed in Android.

Is there any way to suppress this so that the Lint check passes without errors and it's not marked with red underline in Android Studio?

Solution

  • I am not sure if you can do it in code, but you can at least disable it in the IDE. Go to "File | Settings | Editor | Inspections | Illegal Android Identifier" and disable this inspection.
