Dear list,
i get into trouble with the indexing machine of the dam. While i was
extending the demo-dam extension to get a personalized "Create
Category
for Folder" Extension, the create subcategories for subfolders and
so on, i have realised that the file_path (only the directory is
stored in
the database) were cutted after 100 character.
After extending the database to text from tiny_text, the problem
doesn't
disappear. Now i have updated the tca.php from the dam extension to
let
the field be 999 characters long.
The problem seems to be solved now but i habe the feeling that this
is not
the best way to go.
The following updates should be considered:
file_name should at least 128 characters long (thats the default for
MS systems i think)
file_path should be longer than 100 .. 999 may be a choice, but
misses any foundation
The other fields are not showing any limitations till now, may there
should some
updates also.
Thanks for the work you have done,
please contact me if the extension could be of interest for you
With kind regards
Axel
