Hi all,
I would like to increase the database objects names limit from 64
characters to may be 128 characters to avoid name conflicts after
truncation of long table/sequence names.
I have seen a solution to this sometime back which includes (building
from source) modifying a header file then recompiling, but I now
cannot find this information.

Allan.
