FWIW, I just found out that this does not work:
vars:
"logs" slist => { "foo", "bar" };
"canonified[$(logs)]" string => canonify("$(logs)");
classes:
"$(canonified[$(logs)])_exists" expression =>
fileexists("/var/adm/$(logs)");
It gives the same error about illegal characters.

Subject: Problem defining classes from an slist
I have an slist variable, named "logs", of logfile names and just ran
into a problem when I added a filename with a hyphen in it, breaking
this classes promise:
"$(logs)_exists" expression => fileexists("/var/adm/$(logs)");
Running cf-promises on the .cf file returns the following message:
!! Class identifier "syslog-ng_exists" contains illegal characters
Since canonify and classify can only be used on the right-hand side of a
class definition, I'm not sure how to cleanly allow for filenames with
characters that cannot appear in classes. (FWIW, I am defining whether
each file in the slist exists to know whether I need to rotate the
file.)
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Justin
