# This scans the IREE source tree for long path lengths, which are problematic

#
# We ultimately care that the build system is happy, but CMake on Windows in
# particular does not actually give early or easy to understand error messages,
# and developers/CI using Linux may still want to see warnings. We'll use
# relative directory path length as a reasonable heuristic for "will the build
# system be happy?", since CMake tends to create paths like this:
# `iree/compiler/.../Foo/CMakeFiles/iree_compiler_Foo_Foo.objects.dir/bar.obj`.
# Note that 'Foo' appears three times in that path, so that's typically the best
# place to trim characters (and not file names).
#
# To check that all relative paths are shorter than the default limit:
#   python check_path_lengths.py
#
# To check that all relative paths are shorter than a custom limit:
#   python check_path_lengths.py --limit=50
