Unable to create a project in a symbolic link directory
Also attaching with is linux screen shot.
Please note the difference in behavior with Linux Vs Mac as below:
a) In Mac, When user clicks on the Browse button and he navigates to the "Symbolic link" directory and select OK to select that directory. Internally that gets resolved to the link that the Symbolic link is pointing to so normally when the user uses the browse button to browse to a symbolic link folder, ideally it will resolve the link and put the resolved symbolic link in the flex Project creation dialog which is a valid directory. If we manually type the path to the Symbolic link, then you will see this error message (as attached in the screenshot).. however in Mac, user entering this manually is close to zero thats why it has very low impact.
b) On Linux, when user clicks on the browse button and he navigates to the "Symbolic link" directory and selects OK to select that directory, Eclipse keeps the path to the Symbolic link (without resolving the address to which the symbolic link points to)...That is the reason why it shows up the error message... Here the issue is - "Auto resolving of the path when selecting symbolic link is not being done"... which is throwing the error (which is why users are encountering this).
