[m2] Memory errors using CMD but not with CYGWIN

[Michael McCrann <Mi...@macquarie.com>]

Hi,

I use both DOS CMD and CYGWIN to run Maven2. I have a large project
(869) files. 

I have discovered a stange thing: If my project is in a directory with a
long pathname, when I use Maven2 in a CMD window to compile the project
I get OutOfMemory errors. However, if I do the compile from the same
directory using CYGWIN, it works fine.

Can anyone explain why this is?

Michael
