It seems that if the file name is too long, I'm having problems renaming files on OSX.
I have a ListBox where filenames are listed. A button is pressed and the files are renamed based on information in an EditField. At first, the names in the ListBox appear to correct. Once I try to rename them, I receive errors that the file already exists. Part of the code again places the name of the file, along with the error code, back into the ListBox. The unexpected thing is that the file names change to something else. For instance, a file name like this: DefaultSettings 29 really long file name copy 13.cmp Becomes: DefaultSettings 29 rea#65526.cmp It seems there is some sort of thirty-two character limit. Is this how OSX deals with long file names? How can I get around this? Thanks!
