      Description of problem:
      Trying to open jboss-bpmsuite-6.1.2-patch.zip on Windows with built in zip utility fails:

      Windows cannot open the folder

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      How reproducible:
      Always

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. Download jboss-bpmsuite-6.1.2-patch.zip to a Windows machine
      2. Try to extract it using Windows Explorer
      3.

      Actual results:
      Extracting fails

      Expected results:
      Extracting works as expected

      Additional info:
      This is due to the file name limit of 260 characters in Windows. The patch archive, however, contains files which exceed this limit:

      $ unzip -l jboss-bpmsuite-6.1.2-patch.zip |awk -F' ' '

      {print $4}

      '|wc -L
      323

      Example of such a long path:
      jboss-bpmsuite-6.1.2-patch/updates/wls12c/new-content/business-central.war/WEB-INF/classes/org/jboss/errai/marshalling/server/impl/ServerMarshallingFactoryImpl$Marshaller_for_org_drools_workbench_models_guided_dtree_shared_model_parser_messages_AmbiguousRootParserMessageImpl.class

      This problem is showing up with the zip distributions of the platform as well, see related BZ:
      https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1203726

      Workaround:

      • Use 3rd party tools (eg. 7zip) to extract the zip file
      • Use java's jar command to extract the zip file:
        jar.exe -xvf jboss-bpmsuite-6.1.2-patch.zip
