[Bug 34814] New: wineconsole truncates argument string in 256 bytes

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34814

Bug #: 34814
           Summary: wineconsole truncates argument string in 256 bytes
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.7.4
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Mac OS X
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

wineconsole truncates command-line argument string (without switches, like
`--backend=...') in 256 bytes, whereas wine command does not.

It looks too short in practical use. 4096 bytes or more would be better.
(It would surely be much better to calculate buffer length dynamically from
system-wide limitation, or in same way as wine command does, though...)

FIY. I've tried to apply a ad-hoc, workaround patch to
programs/wineconsole/wineconsole.c, just to widen `WCHAR buffer[256]', and it
seems to be working.

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for over a
year. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.37 or newer) wine? If so, please
attach the terminal output in 1.7.37 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).

Bruno,

I tested this with 'wineconsole cmd.exe help' and a lot of arguments. The
resulting error (expected!) repeated the entire argument string, e.g. 'No help
available for <long series of arguments>'.

Previously, the argument string was truncated at 256 chars.

I'm sorry, I may be too sleepy, does this mean it's fixed?
