  Description of problem:
  
  
  When creating a BIRT handler named with underscores, a
  compilation error in the generated Java code:
  My_BirtReportHandler cannot be resolved to a type

  It works fine with MyBirtReportHandler.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  
  1) Create an EGL project with a BIRT Handler like:
  package test;
  
  // BIRT Report Handler
  handler My_BirtReportHandler type BirtHandler
  
   // Event Handler Function Declarations
   function onLabel( l LabelInstance, c ReportContext ) {
  eventType = onCreate, elementName = 'label1' }
    SysLib.writeStdout('onLabel');
   end
  
  end
  
  2) Generate the Java code: the error is raised on the Problems
  view
  
  Workaround:
  Remove the underscore from the Handler name.
