Hi,

 

Unfortunately STAF does not behave just the way I thought it would from the 
Documentation:

 

FS LIST DIRECTORY

 

Does not recognize symbolic links.

 

What I did to reproduce the behaviour:

 

In the directory ~/tmp/fs_demo:

 

[sowso221]~/tmp/fs_demo: mkdir dir.3.1.24

[sowso221]~/tmp/fs_demo: ln -s dir.3.1.24/ dir

[sowso221]~/tmp/fs_demo: touch file.3.1.24

[sowso221]~/tmp/fs_demo: ln -s file.3.1.24 file

 

[sowso221]~/tmp/fs_demo: ls -l

total 8

lrwxrwxrwx   1 user   group          11 Mar  3 11:08 dir -> dir.3.1.24/

drwx------   2 user   group        4096 Mar  3 11:08 dir.3.1.24

lrwxrwxrwx   1 user   group          11 Mar  3 11:09 file -> file.3.1.24

-rw-------   1 user   group           0 Mar  3 11:08 file.3.1.24

 

[sowso221]~/tmp/fs_demo: STAF local FS LIST DIRECTORY ~/tmp/fs_demo LONG TYPE L

Response

[sowso221]~/tmp/fs_demo: STAF local FS LIST DIRECTORY ~/tmp/fs_demo LONG

Type Size Modified Date-Time Name

D    4096 20080303-11:08:24  dir.3.1.24

D    4096 20080303-11:08:24  dir

F    0    20080303-11:08:56  file.3.1.24

F    0    20080303-11:08:56  file

 

Am I missing the point or shouldn't the type of dir and file not be L?

 

I tried that on linux and solaris both with STAF staf-3.1.3. I cannot upgrade 
myself but since I didn't find anything in the history I assume this would be 
the same in newer Versions.
