Hi all,
I've been doing some experimentation today and discovered another twist
in the story
which relates to cygwin - so I forward this on to cygwin-user list, also.
I have been testing the code below against symlinks created
in cygwin64 (I'm running win7 64-bit; I have mingw/msys, msys2
I'm not quite sure what you are looking for. However, maybe this will help:
I created an NTFS symbolic file link with (data.raw is just a normal file):
mklink c:\idelme\data2.raw c:\idelme\data.raw
From there, I was able to see that it was a symbolic link with:
#include windows.h
#include
Yes I've seen that, if my second post appeared, the symlinks created with
cygwin are the ones giving me trouble. These links are invisible to
CMD.exe, by someone's
design:
CYGWIN- created links in
Directory of e:\cygwin64\lib\nox

Hi Folks,
I've been trying to program a recognition of NTFS symbolic link files;
What I;ve gleaned
from MSDN procedures don't seem to work. Below are coded three methods
1) (untested) open file and call GetFileInformationByHandleEx. I can't get
winbase.h header definitions recognized
2)
