Subject: 2.3.1(0.291/5/3): MAXNAMLEN too small
Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2016 16:26:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BAY182-W242B879FA2D747B32D6020EA950@phx.gbl> (raw)

Hey all,
I was compiling mg (the OpenBSD microemacs editor), and it was using MAXNAMLEN for filename completion. It had a bug because its value in Cygwin is 256 (too low!). We changed it to NAME_MAX which is 1024 and it works, but I think they should have the same value, so MAXNAMLEN should be updated to 1024, shouldn't it?
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW 2.3.1(0.291/5/3) i686, on Win7-64bit.
Thanks!
