17 /* Infrastructure common to system file reader and writer.
19 Old versions of SPSS limited string variables to a width of
20 255 bytes. For backward compatibility with these older
21 versions, the system file format represents a string longer
22 than 255 bytes, called a "very long string", as a collection
23 of strings no longer than 255 bytes each. The strings
24 concatenated to make a very long string are called its
25 "segments"; for consistency, variables other than very long
26 strings are considered to have a single segment.
28 The interfaces in this file primarily provide support for
29 dealing with very long strings. */
