SECURITY_NAME field truncated? #38

Closed dciotoli closed 6 years ago

Not sure if this is intentional behavior of the bloomberg API or the python API wrapper, but it seems the SECURITY_NAME field is capped at 30 chars. Checked the bloomberg API docs and they didnt make a mention of it. Anyone know why this might be?

Turns out its intended. LONG_COMP_NAME gives the full name. My bad!
