Hi fadden, Is it sure a case of Symbolic Links?
Anyway, I have found that code: Path file = ...; boolean isSymbolicLink = Attributes.readBasicFileAttributes(file, LinkOption.NOFOLLOW_LINKS).isSymbolicLink(); Which, unfortunately, works only on Java 7 (SE). I couldn't find any way of checking this using Android's Java. Any help would be much appreciated.
