Variable in list limit to 50 characters :(



  • Hi
    I meet some problem with variables length in BuildMaster.
    It is limited to 50 characters. Could you expand it if it is possible ?

    Test Case :
    OK : %MYLIST=%(01234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789: WORK)

    KO : %MYLIST=%(012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890: FAILED)

    Please, don't ask me why I need somy many characters. I need to replace variables in a web.config and the dev team like to have very long and explicit variable .

    Regards

    Philippe

    All "names" are, unfortunately, limited to 50 characters; we thought this was "more than enough", and it's a common limitation in a lot of programming languages.

    This is not something feasible to change for a lot of reasons (consistency across all products, database columns, UI validation, etc)...

    Thanks for the fast answer.
    I will tell my people to reduce the varable length
