STAF currently uses the ANSI version of functions in the Windows API. STAF 
would have to be changed to use the Unicode versions of these Windows API 
functions, e.g. GetFullPathNameW instead of GetFullPathName) to permit an 
extended-length path of 32,767 characters.

If you have a need for this you can open a new Feature Request via 
http://staf.sourceforge.net (select  "Request New Feature" from the 
navigation column on the left).

Subject:        [staf-users] Support of long folder names on windows 
systems



Hi all,

I just came across this 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365247%28v=vs.85%29.aspx#maxpath 
link and wondered, if STAF services like FS could provide support 
the"\\?\" prefix for windows systems?
Not sure, though, if that's rather a core STAF issue or related to JRE or 
really a matter of implementation in services.
I gave it a first try on an XP system, but could not create a directory 
with a path longer than 260 characters.

Cheers
  Jürgen
