#13796: hard to embed custom manifest on windows ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: joeyhess | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment (by garethr): Would it be possible to opt in to long filenames by default on Windows 10? Is there any part of ghc or a library that assumes paths have a maximum of 260 characters? The relevant Microsoft documentation is here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en- gb/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx#maxpath Tip Starting in Windows 10, version 1607, MAX_PATH limitations have been removed from common Win32 file and directory functions. However, you must opt-in to the new behavior. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13796#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
