Re: [equinox-dev] [error] encoded string too long 
In addition to searching bugzilla, a quick search of the internet reveals
its a well known limitation, with not so great workarounds ... which isn't
to say something can't be improved ... just pointing to one such post:

I would recommend opening a bug report with a real test case or a just a
some fake data exhibiting the problem. In this case we may be able to
produce a patch that you could apply back on this particular version of the
fwk.

      Hello everyone,

      My name is Raymond Augé, I'm a senior architect at Liferay, Inc.

      We're bundling equinox (3.7.2.v20120110-1415) and recently I've
      started seeing the following error when the Framework tried to save
      it's state:

      It appears to be due to a very large number of package exports on the
      system bundle (the Framework is embedded).

      Has anyone encountered this? I search bugs.eclipse.org/bugs with no
      results that seem to match.

      It appears I may have to create an Storage hook to get around the
      issue short term.

      Thoughts?
