[java-dev] Re: Re: SOLUTION! Long Filename Support in Max with Java

Just to be safe, I re-uploaded the library so try re-downloading it.  The file sizes were identical, so I am not sure what is going on.

1)  The file has to exist.  I created a file in a test directory with the same name you used.  If the file does not exist, it will return garbage.  I need to add a check and return -1 or something if the file does not exist.  That will have to be a future update.

Also, feeding the name back in also mangles it (meaning you cannot feed the max name through it.  In the javascript it should be easy to check for the # character and surpass the check code.

Here is the code I used (you'll have to touch the file in /Test/Charlotte/_perso/_samples/bush/.....)
