Description
The file vector200.hpp, which appears to be an auto-generated file, does not import into the ClearCase configuration management tool properly due to excessive line length. This was observed when using ClearCase on Windows for configuration management of a software project using Boost. ClearCase has a documented per line import maximum of 8000 characters for text files (refer to http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/4704.html). In general files with lines exceeding 100+ characters are undesirable for a number of reasons. Since this file appears to be auto-generated, it should be generated such that the lines are much shorter so the file is more compatible with CM tools and other editors that may have troubles with the line length.
