Probably its an acceptable solution, you can find info on some websites describing this techinque as a possible solution (without any actual implementation though). If you can come up with a complete tested patch that integrate this to FileFindIter class and ShareManager::buildTree, that'd possibly be accepted.
-- Support Win32 Symbolic Links when indexing share https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653295 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Dcplusplus-team, which is subscribed to DC++. Status in DC++: Confirmed Bug description: I want to share a directory which contains a number of files linked to via symbolic links (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365680%28VS.85%29.aspx). However the index/hashing thing seems to fail, skip, or otherwise just not work on large numbers of the files. The files physical locations the links target are spread across a number of physical locations (including some shared network locations) and also includes some personal files in the same directory (hence sym linking the files I want and not sharing the directory) that I do not wish to share. Is there anything I can do about this? Symbolic links are supposed to be a file system feature and transparent so I don't really see why this is failing to work :( _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~linuxdcpp-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~linuxdcpp-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
