http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15031 ANT <copy> with <fileset> does not spot bad symlinks ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-07-23 18:03 ------- I think there is some possibility that JL may have a way to fix this, but more consideration is needed. How does it react to things like named pipes and other file system wierdos? Are these results true on all *nix's? What about across different filesystems that may be mounted. And what about Cygwin? JL, you might be interested to read bug 1550 for which I found a way to infer the existance of Symlinks for the followsymlinks atribute. You will need to answer the same types of questions before you can say that your method really identifies broken symlinks only. Even if it doesn't identify them specifically, it is possible that the other things identified could be worth reporting with a warning, or even failing the build. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
