Filename max length under QNX 4.25

What is the max length of a file and a path name under QNX 4.25?

I searched the manuals with no luck but grep of the includes give me two
numbers:

limits.h:
NAME_MAX 48
_POSIX_PATH_MAX 255 ← comments say this is a minimum.
PATH_MAX _POSIX_PATH_MAX

stdio.h:
FIMENAME_MAX 255

Base don my experiences … 48 characters is the maximum.

_POSIX_PATH_MAX 255 ← comments say this is a minimum.
PATH_MAX _POSIX_PATH_MAX

stdio.h:
FIMENAME_MAX 255

I never could install archives if they include pathes bigger than 48(?)
characters.

The max file name is 48 , but the complete path (that includes directory
name ) is 255

48 is the file name maximum. 255 is probably the full
path maximum.
