VMS Help Ext File Specs, Overview, Impact, File System (XQP) Changes *Conan The Librarian |
The following Files-11 Extended QIO Processor (XQP) file system
enhancements are offered under Extended File Specifications
through the $QIO interface. Note that in some cases, XQP file
format rules may differ from those that apply to other system
services that accept file names, such as those provided by RMS.
o The current restrictions on the format and content of file
names have been modified, specifically:
- The 39.39 file name length restriction was removed to allow
longer file names, up to 236 8-bit characters or 117 16-bit
characters
- The use of characters from the ISO Latin-1 multinational
character set is supported in file specifications
- Support for the entry and storage of file and directory
specifications in Unicode.
