PATH_TOO_LONG Errors

[Timbuctoo]

I was backing up files from my Android phone's SD cards (both internal and external) when I was hit by a lot of PATH_TOO_LONG errors. From the path mentioned in the error window, it seemed like the buffer is about 256-512 characters.

I'm a programmer too, but don't have the source code for MPE. Ideally I would use the definitions in limits.h (PATH_MAX; generally around 4096) to overcome such errors.

While I certainly am all in awe for this great program, I would appreciate if the author could fix this small issue.

Warm Regards.

If it matters, here are the phone and MPE configurations

Phone Model: Samsung GT-I9003 (Galaxy SL)
Android Version: 2.3.6 (GINGERBREAD.DDKP1)
MPE Version: 1.8.2
PC OS: Windows XP (SP3)

To fix this bug would be really alot of work cause MyPhoneExplorer uses inbuild file-features which are many years old. I cannot increese the Maxpath limit (256 chars). Maybe a easy workaround for you: Move the databasefolder in settings-advanced 2 to C:\ or D:\, this will make the cache-path for the files shorter
