code base: PATH_NAME_MAX vs PATH_MAX
------------------------------------
Key: TS-84
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-84
Project: Traffic Server
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Cleanup
Affects Versions: 2.0a
Environment: All
Reporter: George Paul
Priority: Minor
Originally PATH_NAME_MAX was to be used for PATH_MAX for portability between
OS's AFAIR. PATH_MAX is inconsistent on various OSs (linux-4096, osx/bsd-1024,
windows-260(?), etc). TS is more consistent in the use of PATH_NAME_MAX in the
code base (cache, hostdb, plugins, etc) while TM is not as consistent. TC never
used it. The code base needs to examined for usage of both and made consistent
and portable. The current suggestion is to use what TS currently uses which is
PATH_NAME_MAX. This should be revisited when this issue is worked on.
