directory v1.3.1.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2017-03-01 // about 7 years ago
    • findFile (and similar functions): when an absolute path is given, the list of search directories is now completely ignored. Previously, if the list was empty, findFile would always fail. (#72)

    • For symbolic links on Windows, the following functions had previously interpreted paths as referring to the links themselves rather than their targets. This was inconsistent with other platforms and has been fixed.

      • getFileSize
      • doesPathExist
      • doesDirectoryExist
      • doesFileExist
    • Fix incorrect location info in errors from pathIsSymbolicLink.

    • Add functions for symbolic link manipulation:

      • createFileLink
      • createDirectoryLink
      • removeDirectoryLink
      • getSymbolicLinkTarget
    • canonicalizePath can now resolve broken symbolic links too. (#64)
