String Lengths...

All are allocated dynamically. There are some OS specific limits on filename
length. The lex input buffer is 4k so no single map file line can be longer
than that. Item names (classitem, labelitem etc...) are bound by the xbase
spec for column names which I think is 16 chars but I may be wrong.

Howdy,

Just a quick question... What is the maximum string length that
Mapserver allows?  I
specifically need the lengths of:
    o filenames
    o expressions
    o names (of objects such as layers and classes).

Thanks,
    Jason
