-----------------------------------------
Need to verify is this still an issue?
> Generated class filenames are too long for some systems

> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Infrastructure, Windows
> Reporter: Steve Lawrence
> Priority: Major
> Labels: verify
>
> Some systems, like windows and ecrypted filesystems on linux, have a maximum
> path length of around 255. Due to scalac's autogenerated class names, it's
> very possible to read this limit. We should use the -Xmax-classfile-name
> option to limit the length of these autogenerated names. Note that our
> longest dirnames are about 100 characters, so if we can limit the length of
> filenames to less than 100, that gives users about 50 characters for a root
> directory path, which isn't totally unreasonable.
