File length limit 1024 [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

UNCLASSIFIED

Using java.io.File, the maximum path length of a file is 1024
characters, beyond this the File object responds as if the File does not
exist.
This limitation appears to be OS independant, as I have tested it on
both Solaris and Windows XP.

Does anyone no if this short comming has been addressed in NIO?
