Subject: [Bug java/21821] New: MAXPATHLEN usage in [gcc]/libjava/gnu/java/nio/channels/natFileChannelImpl.cc
Date: Mon, 30 May 2005 14:40:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050530144012.21821.ams@gnu.org> (raw)

Please do not use MAXPATHLEN, it is a arbitrary limit, and is not
defined on GNU.  Currently this makes libjava (gcc 4.0.0) unbuildable on GNU
since [gcc]/libjava/gnu/java/nio/channels/natFileChannelImpl.cc assumes that
MAXPATHLEN is defined.  Please do not use these kind of limits in GNU programs.

Not having MAXPATHLEN is perfectly compliant with POSIX, same goes for
MAXHOSTNAMELEN, PATH_MAX etc.
