Info about directory symbolic links?

[canderoc]

GetShortcutInfoEx does not work for directory symbolic links or junctions. Any idea how to get info about them, like what their targets are?

Function MountVolume

;/
function ~vol ~mountpoint

;Mounts volume vol to mountpoint.
;Error if fails.

;vol - volume name, eg "D:\".
;mountpoint - folder that will be mount point of vol. Can exist or not, as mount point or empty folder.

mountpoint+"\"
;Vista bug: incorrect icon on desktop if the folder did not exist.
;To fix it, here could be inserted some delay.
;However (another Windows bug?) with 1 s delay, the folder becomes not as shortcut,
;and when you try to delete it, deletes all files in the volume. With eg
;5 s delay works well. Or maybe randomly, I did not test enough.
;Tried SHChangeNotify.
