Re: Problem with stat


Hi,

Why is Lessdox not recognised as a link here?

Because your program asked about what the link pointed to, and not about the link itself. The command line 'stat' uses lstat(), which is probably what you want your program to do. And this question is not cygwin-specific.

thanks!

I know. It is more about the user who is using but not understanding cygwin.
