Stefán Freyr Stefánsson commented on GROOVY-7166:
-------------------------------------------------
Well, one thing that might be possibly (or maybe not... I don't know) is to use
some sort of hashing function to create names that are longer than the allowed
limit. It will probably result in butt ugly generated code but still. Again,
just some ideas from the top of my head... more than likely that they are not
good or even impossible to implement. I don't know enough about what's going on
there to be able to say.
My main purpose for the comment was to point people that stumble upon this bug
in the right direction and give them an idea of a workaround if they are using
ecryptfs.
I fully understand that there may be nothing that is practical to do to fix
this.
