General Java Questions IV
My class name with qualifiers is 44 characters long, I can only imagine that there
must be a limit ....
Answer: From the JVM Spec 2   4.2
                                      
Class and interface names...fully qualified name...as
CONSTANT_Utf8_info.
                                      
That structure, CONSTANT_Utf8_info, places a limit of 64k on the length. But for a
class this is the fully qualified name, so the maximum length of the name could be
less.
