Re: [tycho-user] Symbolic links do not seem to be created

When I unzip the archive in the products folder there is no symbolic link, but when I check the unarchived version in "/target/products/example.product.id/linux/gtk/x86" I do see the symbolic link. I guess I'm running into the archive issue.

it should create the symlinks in the products/ folder - can you confirm?

However the plexus tar archiver component tycho uses doesn't have support for symlinks, it just inlines them

Subject: [tycho-user] Symbolic links do not seem to be created

Hi Everyone,

While looking at Bug 402052 [1] I noticed it appears Tycho isn't creating any symbolic links. I tried building the example project from the Tycho Demo Project for RCP Application [2] and noticed that also doesn't create symbolic links for me.

When I build the demo project it seems Tycho is creating a copy of the hello script instead of creating it as a symbolic link as you can see from my ls command here:

$ ls -l hello_alias scripts/hello
-rwxrwxrwx 1 user group 29 Feb 28 18:38 hello_alias
-rwxr-xr-x 1 user group 29 Feb 28 18:38 scripts/hello


I'm building from a Linux machine and pasted my "mvn --version" below. Is there any additional configuration I should be using to have this working?
