To be on the safe side with this issue, we really need to call pathconf to get the correct values. (It will need to be emulated on Windows, but that isn't hard, at least as far as _POSIX_PATH_MAX and _POSIX_NAME_MAX are concerned.) If pathconf returns something greater than a few KB, I'd suggest to avoid alloca or any other stack-based allocations. _______________________________________________ Make-w32 mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/make-w32
