ΒΆstd::error_code create_link(
    const llvm::Twine& to,
    const llvm::Twine& from)

Description

Create a link from \a from to \a to. The link may be a soft or a hard link, depending on the platform. The caller may not assume which one. Currently on windows it creates a hard link since soft links require extra privileges. On unix, it creates a soft link since hard links don't work on SMB file systems.

Declared at: llvm/include/llvm/Support/FileSystem.h:349

Parameters

const llvm::Twine& to
The path to hard link to.
const llvm::Twine& from
The path to hard link from. This is created.

Returns

errc::success if the link was created, otherwise a platform specific error_code.
