From a build from the weekend

The directory on the build machine is 
c:/buildtest/N20071018-2000/eclipse-testing/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.sdk.tests.source_3.5.0.N20081018-2000/src/org.eclipse.jdt.core.tests.performance_3.3.100.N20081018-2000/src/org/eclipse/jdt/core/tests/performance/FullSourceWorkspaceTypeHierarchyTests.java

which is 262 characters and the limit on windows is 254. Would it be possible to shorten your class names for these test suites?


There are more classes with this same issue.  See

Kim,

It looks like it's the directory path which is too long here:
c:/buildtest/N20071018-2000/eclipse-testing/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.sdk.tests.source_3.5.0.N20081018-2000/src/org.eclipse.jdt.core.tests.performance_3.3.100.N20081018-2000
is 175 characters long!

Reducing it would definitely solve all the problems you got...

Feels to me something which should be addressed in the script as well. Given Frederic helping releng, it feels like sthg he could help with, and reassign to the releng component ?
Comment 3 Frederic Fusier CLA 2009-06-23 04:52:24 EDT 
Kim,

Did you still get this issue?
If so, is there still anything I can do to help here?
Comment 4 Kim Moir CLA 2009-06-23 08:59:23 EDT 
I think this can be closed.
