Can't checkout trunk on Windows
Hi,
There seems to be resources under:
maven-embedder\src\test\error-reporting-projects\testReportUnresolvableArtifactWhileAddingExtensionPlugin\local-repo\org\apache\maven\errortest\testReportUnresolvableArtifactWhileAddingExtensionPlugin-maven-plugin
that causes the checkout to fail under windows.
Can someone on a non-windows box fix this please.
Thanks,
Rahul

I'll get it fixed. I always forget about the constraints on windows
platforms...

John,
I am unable too to do a fresh svn co from D:\t which t is the trunks.
As mentioned, the pb is in the error-reporting-projects:
D:\t\components\maven-embedder\src\test\error-reporting-projects\ ...
We need to allow a check out to a root directory without problem.
Could you reduce the dir names in the error-reporting-projects?
Thanks.
Vincent

Please be aware, that this also affects the Java VM (at least up to JDK 5)! And now imagine someone tries to release this on Windows. Then the complete structure is checked out in the target/checkout directory (16 characters more in the path) and the release plugin will simply fail because the tests cannot be run.

The problem is the length of the path, its exceeds 256 charactes. While the
Windows API can principally handle longer paths [0], applications need to
take special steps to get this behaviour. Your SVN client most likely does
not do this.
