Yes, I think so. Don't have time to look it up right now, but will do it later.

If I recall correctly if we using a special character as prefix. I'll need to look it up again. Either we encourage users to use that prefix or we implicitly add it in NAnt (on Windows only).

Once the build is complete I use the copy task to copy the output install folders to out network testing folder. One of the installs is in a CD Image format and it is built in uncompressed mode, meaning that the full directory structure is exposed. So when this copy takes place it will fail with the System.IO.PathTooLongException - path larger than 260 characters. I before I change my install project to generate a compressed build of the CD Image I was just wondering if there is any thing that I could change so that it may be possible to copy a folder structure that was larger than 260 characters.
