on NT, symlink can be created using junction.exe, as explained below.
However,
I don't want ant to traverse those symlinks as it gets into an infinite
loop.
does anyone know how to work around this problem?

thanks,


Paul

*       The Microsoft term for this feature is "reparse point" 
*       The command is called junction.exe 
*       Downloadable from
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/misc.shtml
*       Limitations: 
                - Works only on Win2k and NTFS5 or greater
                - Deals with absolute symlinks only - no relative symlinks
                - Doesn't work on network drives or FAT filesystems
*       The order of arguments is reversed from the UNIX ln command. The
syntax is: 
              junction.exe destination source
