This release brings support for reparse points and symbolic links.
This release brings support for reparse points and symbolic links as well as other minor changes.
- Reparse points are a general mechanism for attaching special behavior to files. WinFsp supports any kind of reparse point.
- Symbolic links in Windows are implemented as reparse points. WinFsp includes full symbolic link support.
- Reparse points are a general mechanism for attaching special behavior to files. Symbolic links in Windows are implemented as reparse points. WinFsp supports any kind of reparse point including symbolic links.
- The WinFsp FUSE implementation supports symbolic links. It also supports POSIX special files (FIFO, SOCK, CHR, BLK) as NFS reparse points (see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn617178.aspx).
Other minor changes:
- User mode file systems that wish to support reparse points will have to set the `FSP_FSCTL_VOLUME_PARAMS::ReparsePoints` flag and implement the `FSP_FILE_SYSTEM_INTERFACE` methods `ResolveReparsePoints`, `GetReparsePoint`, `SetReparsePoint`, `DeleteReparsePoint`.
- The installation now includes public symbol files for all WinFsp components shipped.
