That's a reasonable point. Apart from its hardcoded 260 char limit.
Windows in general does not react well to paths exceeding this limit anywhere.
The problem reported by the original ticket was that for GetTempPathW the limit is 130 characters, and that is way too small for some applications. And, yes, I did add test code that verified GetTempPathW fails at roughly 130 characters.
Wow, so that's a 260 *byte* limit then. That's dismal :( Niall -- ned Productions Limited Consulting http://www.nedproductions.biz/ http://ie.linkedin.com/in/nialldouglas/
