+Summary: string in case statement cannot > 64 chars
+
+In case statements, the maximum length of the string is 64 bytes. That is,
+
+<-------------------------------------------------------------->
+ strName = "{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/}
+partnerLinks";
+ switch (strName)
+ {
+ case "{http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/business-process/}
+partnerLinks":
+            System.Console.WriteLine ("Found it"); break;
+ default:  System.Console.WriteLine ("Not Found it"); break;
+ }
+<--------------------------------------------------------------->
+ 
+This code will print "Not Found it".
+ 
+On .Net the above code works just fine. I am not aware of the maximum 
+string length possible under .Net. If 64 characters is indeed the 
+specification and not a bug than perhaps the compiler should issue some 
+sort of warning about it.
+ Maybe it would be a better idea to make the string length the same as 
+microsoft .Net.
