RC2102: Zbyt długi ciąg liter

Question

Próbuję skompilować GLEW w VS2012, ale pliki zasobów nie będą się kompilować i otrzymam komunikat "error RC2102: literał łańcuchowy za długi". Czy ktoś może wyjaśnić, w jaki sposób/dlaczego ten błąd występuje, i czy istnieje sposób, aby to naprawić, bez skracania łańcucha. (Ciąg zawiera informacje o prawach autorskich/licencji). Oto jeden z plików przestępstwa .RC:

Linia komentarzy jest oczywiście bardzo długo i myślę, może po prostu usunąć niektóre z nich, ale zastanawiam się, czy istnieje lepsze rozwiązanie.

[EDIT]

Jest to znany problem z tych konkretnych plików zasobów, to czyni mnie zastanawiać, dlaczego to będzie działać w VS2010 bez problemu, czy MS ograniczyć maksymalny rozmiar ciąg dosłownym? Umysł jest okropny.

Answer 1

Problem jest nadal obecny w VS2013 RC (2010 pracował również dla mnie). Aby to działa po prostu podzielić ciąg raz w środku:

VALUE "Comments", "The OpenGL [...] All Rights Reserved.\r\n\r\n" 
        "Permission is [...]" 

Answer 2

Ten problem występuje z podglądem VS2015.

Odpowiedź Trass3r działa również dla VS2015.
