missing links?The latest port of fileutils uses indeed BackupWrite
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/fileio/base/backupwrite.asp) to
create hard links on NT systems and uses CreateHardLink
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/filei/base/createhardlink.asp) on
XP. This implementation of link is in the latest release of libgw32c, which
hasn't been yet released on SourceForge.

Onderwerp: [GnuWin32-Users] missing links?




Hi,
Thank you very much for the GnuWin32 project.
Browsing the sources for fileutils-4.1.8-src and libgw32C-03-src I was
searching the link(2) implementation, but I only found a stub.
Anyway analyzing ln.exe I can find the reference to the KERNEL32:BackupWrite
that probably
creates the hard links on Windows NT/2K/etc NTFS filesystems.
What missing link am I missing ?
Thank you again for the effort, it makes Windows a much more pleasant
system,
if you have to live with it.
Fabio Fabbri
