[Mono-devel-list] string in case statement cannot > 64 chars

[Namit Dhameja]

Hi all,
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.

 -Best Regards,
 Namit.
