I am using a build system which exports build header files using 'cp' to another directory. When gcc reports an error in an exported header and I use emacs to goto that error point the exported header is opened as expected. Attempting to then open the actual source header so that it can be edited causes emacs to claim that the two files are the same and it refuses to open the proper file. These two files are clearly not the same file - they are stored on separate inodes and are not links of any sort. Turning find-file-existing-other-name off stops this behaviour but then loses the desirable behaviour of preventing the same file accessed by 2 different paths being opened twice. --=-IPAJkE6MykQ/4JvfwsbZ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ Bug-gnu-emacs mailing list Bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-gnu-emacs --=-IPAJkE6MykQ/4JvfwsbZ--
