Hello

I fear that in this case the whole indirection operations on softlink occur only in the shell, and that the final command is only executed as if it were called directly on the real file...

Have you tried typing "python ./waf", to see how the resolution occurs in that case ?

Regards,
Pascal

Hi,
    I am writiing a script say "wabexec" in python
I will then have softlinks from other softlinks like ls, waf,hello, etc that are in the same directory and pointing to wabexec. When some executes ./waf or ./hello and wabexec gets invoked because of the softlink, how do I find out from within wabexec how it was invoked? was it throug waf or hello, etc. both __file__ and sys.arg0[] seem to have wabexec not the name of the softlink. Any ideas? Sarvi
