lstat(), lstat64()

I noticed that the lstat() and lstat64() functions and S_ISLNK flag are
not available with MinGW.


I used this workaround:

#define __MSVCRT_VERSION__  0x0601 /* or greater */
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <dirent.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <windef.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <tchar.h>

void find_link(void)
{
WIN32_FIND_DATA entry;
HANDLE cwd = INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE;

    chdir("c:\testdir"); /* Directory to be searched for */
                         /* linked files and linked folders */

    cwd = FindFirstFile(".\\*", &entry);
    if (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE == cwd)
    {
        return;
    }

    do
    {
       if( entry.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT)
      {
          printf("Link: %s\n", entry.cFileName);
      }
    } while (FindNextFile(cwd, &entry) != 0);

    FindClose(cwd);
}


Regards,

Hans
