Notify does not resolve symlinks on windows

Open Zillode opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

According to the documentation: Notify resolves, for its internal purpose, any symlinks the provided path may contain, so it may fail if the symlinks form a cycle. However, this is not true for windows platforms and we are interested to have this feature.

Symlinks are created using mklink /d on Windows 8.1

Hey @Zillode, sorry for taking so long to respond. The canonical paths are there more for internal purpose rather than a library feature - to be able to merge two watchpoints, set on symlink and its target, into one.

If it does not work on Windows, I'll look into it. If you could provide a test-case (see Windows tests, it would get solved even faster :)
