Description
Resolution: The following are the subject structure and subject length allowed to send by TIBCO Rendezvous.
Structure Each subject name is a string of characters that is divided into elements by the dot (.) character. It is illegal to incorporate the dot character into an element by using an escape sequence.
Length Rendezvous limits subject names to a total length of 255 characters (including dot separators). However, some of that length is reserved for internal use. The longest subject that (most) programs can receive is 196 characters. The maximum total length (in characters) of subjects that your programs may send is 196 minus the number of elements. Include dot separators in this total. The maximum element length is 127 characters (dot separators are not included in element length).
So the maximum possible length of the subject name can be sent by the program is 196. In this, if you have three elements separated by two dots like <subject element1>.<subject element2>.<subject element3> the maximum allowed subject length will be 196 (subject length) - 3 (element count) = 193
