Jochen Theodorou commented on GROOVY-7166: ------------------------------------------ Of course we can check if the file name length will exceed a certain limit. But what will we do with this information? In 2.4, the file names are shorter, since we changed the pattern for the file generation. > Can't build Groovy project due to too long file name > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: GROOVY-7166 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7166 > Project: Groovy > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.3.7 > Reporter: Marcin Grzejszczak > Priority: Minor > > When I clone groovy-core and execute > {noformat} > ./gradlew clean test > {noformat} > I get: > {noformat} > :compileTestGroovy > warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source > 1.6 > Note: Some input files use or override a deprecated API. > Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details. > Note: Some input files use unchecked or unsafe operations. > Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details. > 1 warning > startup failed: > /home/marcin/repo/groovy-fork/target/test-classes/org/codehaus/groovy/ast/builder/AstBuilderFromSpecificationTest$_testSwitchAndCaseAndBreakStatements_closure31_closure120_closure124_closure128_closure129_closure130_closure131.class > (File name too long) > /home/marcin/repo/groovy-fork/target/test-classes/org/codehaus/groovy/ast/builder/AstBuilderFromSpecificationTest$_testForStatementAndClosureListExpression_closure36_closure154_closure156_closure160_closure161_closure162.class > (File name too long) > {noformat} > Executed with JDK7 and JDK8.
