Issues with symboic links in VFS3
---------------------------------
Key: JBVFS-138
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBVFS-138
Project: JBoss VFS
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Affects Versions: 3.0.0.CR1
Reporter: Ales Justin
Assignee: John Bailey
Fix For: 3.0.0.CR2
If a filesystem is mounted for a path that contains a symbolic link, it will only mount at
the path provided at mount time. In other words if you mount it using the canonical path,
it will not be accessible using the path containing the symlink. The same is true for the
opposite case.
Ex.
Link: /path/with/link --> /path/without/link
Mount: /path/without/link/archive.ear
Mount: /path/without/link/archive.ear/archive.jar
Access: new URL("file:///path/with/link/archive.ear/archive.jar") <---
This is fail as /path/with/link/archive.ear/archive.jar does not point to the mounted
filesystem. It will default to the RealFilesystem and archive.jar will not exist.
