Description Alex Sanielevici

Exra-long paths in the latest releases of Eclipse 3.2 RCx are cutting down on the margin of safety in Windows path character counts when eclipse is placed below the first few levels of the Windows filesystem.

Example long path within Eclipse hierarchy:

\eclipse32rc3\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.platform.source.win32.win32.x86_3.2.0.v20060503-1530-7gOepm_tjppfKda\src\org.eclipse.core.resources.win32_3.2.0.v20060426\AutoRefreshCallbacks
