Junctions

Posted on July 25, 2007

Sometime ago I had a problem with maximum file path on Windows XP implementation of NTFS. Well, NTFS has a little known feature called junction points which can be used like symlinks on Unix. Windows comes with console program that allows to create them, but I found this really great program that integrates into explorer shell. And now a can have all projects reside in one directory.

BTW from the wikipedia page I found that Vista now has real symlinks. Finally one reason to upgrade! ;-)
