| Subject: | Could filename length of a test file be reduced? |
Hello and thanks for Moose 0.33,
I was just wondering if you could reduce the length of a test
filename in the distribution.
t/030_roles/007_roles_and_required_method_edge_cases.t
On VMS (with the default filesystem, ODS-2) the filename component:
007_roles_and_required_method_edge_cases
has a max length of 39 characters.
perl -e "print length('007_roles_and_required_method_edge_cases')"
40
Something like:
007_roles_and_req_method_edge_cases
would work.
I'm currently having to rebuild the distribution on *.nix box with
a shorter filename before being able to extract the tar file on VMS.
This would help me.
Cheers,
Peter (Stig) Edwards
P.S.
Once I reduced the test file length and changed Makefile.PL to use
ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Moose 0.33 builds and passes all it's tests
on VMS under Perl 5.8.7. Thanks again.
