[REBOL] very long path/filenames
From: D::Weyand::gmx::de at: 5-Dec-2005 14:08
Hi list,
does anybody know how to create files with very long pathes? As I have to
handle deep directory structures with pathes longer than 255 characters, my
script failed to work on Windows as REBOL always uses the absolute path to
open such targets.
I want to migrate my scripts/data from AmigaOS with SmartFileSystem to
WindowsXP.
See script example below:
long-filename: %.txt
insert/dup long-filename "0" 200
close open long-filename
long-path: %/
insert/dup long-path "0" 200
make-dir/deep long-path
close open join long-path long-filename
** Access Error: Cannot open ....<SNIP>
Any ideas for a workaround? Do you know a filesystem for Windows which can
handle long pathes/filenames?
Thanks for your help and advise.
Regards,
Dirk
