But Cygwin can also do junctions via hardlinks in ln.exe.
I thought link() calls the junction code.
I'll investigate why the libc link() failed, and if ln.exe does some sifferent magic, similar to pgsymlink.
I thought a little bit over this.
hardlinks and junctions don't work across physical disks, only symlinks.
Where did you read this? I just looked and can see no such restriction.
Sorry, obviously I just got old information. So we have to update our old cygwin code for NTFS5.
You can use Volume Mount Points with DeviceIoControl now too, since Win2000 NTFS 5. Sorry. I only knew about Directory Junction Points.
