Sergei Makarov created MCLEAN-58:
------------------------------------
Summary: Maven Clean Plugin ignores followSymLinks parameter on
Windows
Key: MCLEAN-58
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCLEAN-58
Project: Maven Clean Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.5
Reporter: Sergei Makarov
Attachments: MavenCleanPluginNoFollowSymlinkBug.zip
Most of old java software use getCanonicalFile() to determine symlink. But it
is lie for windows. Lets look to org.apache.maven.plugin.clean.Cleaner:
147 File canonical = followSymlinks ? file :
file.getCanonicalFile();
148 if ( followSymlinks || file.equals( canonical ) )
getCanonicalFile() returns same path and folow symlink. In attached
MavenCleanPluginNoFollowSymlinkBug.zip you found TestCase.bat that shows bug
(just read it to understand than run). Unfortunately I know only one way to fix
this - move to NIO that has isSymbolicLink() since java 1.7.
