When you create ``a hardlink to a file, the original file and the hardlink share the same information like ``file attributes, file-content etc, but the data is not stored twice. ``If you need a file at several positions on your partition, you dont have to copy them any- ``more. You just can create hardlinks. This saves you diskspace and all the hardlinks share ``always the same content. If you have i.e. an include file you need in every of you project ``you can create hardlinks to the original file. When you update one of these hardlinke, all ``other links are affected too. ````The file system keeps a hard-link reference counter on each file. Only when you delete the ``last hardlink of a file, the file is deleted, too. | | http://www.ractive.ch | Last Updated on 7/2/2008 6:15:00 PM |
