[Bug 124205] New: Help - About - License is cut at 65535 chars (even though the LICENSE file is complete)

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124205

            Bug ID: 124205
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Help - About - License is cut at 65535 chars (even
                    though the LICENSE file is complete)
           Product: General
           Version: 4.0.1
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: CONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: ui
          Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
          Reporter: pescetti@apache.org
                CC: issues@openoffice.apache.org

The LICENSE file we distribute with 4.0.1 is complete and contains all the
expected notices, but the facility to show it from the OpenOffice GUI (Help -
About - License) cuts it at 65535 characters.

The full file should be displayed, or a workaround found by version 4.1.

No other implications, since the file is complete, only the display is broken.

This is a result of an internal limitation, already known and informed:

This is quite impossible, it would take months to replace the old string
classes with rtl::OUstring

We have the same problem with license display at installation of an extension.

See Bug 95086 License text > 65500 chars cannot display

I think both bugs should be corrected together.

--- Comment #1 from Rainer Bielefeld <ra...@bielefeldundbuss.de> ---
Reproducible:

Visible text in 'Help - About - License' ends with string "FOR ANY DIRECT,
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL".
My count (Text Document AOO and LibO counts 62841 Characters.

License.txt in <ProgramInstallation>\share\readme\ seems complete
