Vladimir Panteleev <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |dlang-bugzilla@thecybershad | |ow.net --- Comment #2 from Vladimir Panteleev <[email protected]> --- This is a request for a realpath wrapper in Phobos, then? FWIW, I would argue that almost everywhere I've seen a usage of realpath, it was unnecessary and often even harmful - mainly because I think historically libc did not provide an easy way to canonicalize a path without resolving symlinks. But that's probably not a good reason to not provide a D wrapper for a standard C function. I'm not sure what to do with Windows, as there is no equivalent for it in Windows libcs, and Windows implements symlinks (and reparse points in general) very differently. --
