            Bug ID: 62849
           Summary: DirectoryScanner does not efficiently handle
                    filesystem loops
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.9.13
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

If you have a large file structure being scanned and the file system contains a
loop caused by a symbolic link then it is possible for the directory scanner to
run out of memory before the 'maxLevelsOfSymlinks' protection kicks in.

This affects us in Jenkins which uses the DirectoryScanner to pick up artefacts
for publishing/archiving.
