Hi Nicolai,

�� �� I'm a bit concerned that this is creating drift with the "official" Cog source base at��http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog.�� Long filename support for win32 was recently added by Marcel Taumel in May of this year.�� Are you tracking that?�� How can we keep the sources harmonized?

Yes, I know, and I already asked on the ML if we can take that change or

if it is not possible because we have already other changes (pharos file plugin

provides addition attributes (the file permissions)).

Esteban and I just harmonized this.�� I'm (almost correctly) generating the plugin source such that one can define either PharoVM or not to chose between the different versions.�� I say "almost" because I'm currently spitting out

#define PharoVM 0

...

#if PharoVM

instead of

#if !defined(PharoVM)

# �� define PharoVM 0

#endif

...

#if PharoVM

but I'll fix it v soon.

OK, I'll try to copy marcels solution

��

But I got no response, so I tried to adopt Marcels change.

And I only found the change for sqWin32FilePrims.c, but missed the other change

that is necessary in sqWin32Directory.c (and asked on the ML). In the meantime Marcel added this but I could not find

the changed source, only an updated vm.

Is this change already comitted?

Yes, see��http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog/platforms/win32/vm/sqWin32Directory.c

Ah, good. Now (I must be blind, but) I can not see the other change, shouldn't there

be a "plugins" folder in Cog/platforms/win32/?
Where are the changes to sqWin32FilePrims.c now?

��

I'm sorry I didn't see your message.�� Did you ask on vm-dev?

I am not sure, maybe I only send it in the squeak-dev list

��

��

I would love if someone else got this working.

:-) ��I hear you :-)

For those who had problems with pharo on windows and github based repositories,

I built a windows vm with support for long paths:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8yEahnuIem2bmxwdzJuUXFxVGM/view?usp=sharing

For browsing directories with large paths (FileList or Inspect),
you may need one additional change in the image (But I am not really sure about that) :

DiskStore>>initialize
������ super initialize.
������ maxFileNameLength := Smalltalk vm maxFilenameLength ifNil: [ 32767 ].

please test and give feedback.

This wasn't as easy as I thought, and I had to make some more changes

for the file permissions (the stat-functions don't work for files with long paths).

Please test other file/folder operations.
