Hi everyone

I'm currently updating a parameter's description at runtime via this notify in my connector.

https://docs.dataminer.services/develop/api/NotifyTypes/NT_UPDATE_DESCRIPTION_XML.html

Is there a regex that checks for valid parameter descriptions? This way I can validate my new parameter description before applying the update.

The docs on changing param names states that >, <, &, % are forbidden.

Also, please confirm the uniqueness of the parameter name. When changing the parameter name on Cube, it does not allow you to set it if the name is duplicate. Please take a look if this is correctly handled with the Notify call, or check for duplicate name before doing the update.
