Hi All, The macro responsible to set maximum filename/path length in Harbour (HB_PATH_MAX) is now set to 264.
Modern systems can handle much more as maximum path length (f.e. Windows 32K chars). Shouldn't we extend this Harbour constant to handle more? There are few issues to take care of: - This macro is used for both filename and pathname max length in Harbour, maybe we should have two values to fix that. - Set this constant to different values depending on platform. - Many times the buffer is allocated on stack, we may need to revise whether using larger buffers here has any bad side-effect. - Other? Opinions are welcome!
