[lldb-dev] FileSpec::Resolve and (sym)links

[Pavel Labath]

Thanks, that is exactly the function i was looking for.

However, I would still like to fix the inconsistency between the
implementation and the comment of FileSpec::Resolve. Perhaps I should just
rephrase the comment, since everyone seems to be happy with the current
implementation?
