use_reparse_points Property
Whether the virtual filesystem supports reparse points.
Syntax
def get_use_reparse_points() -> bool: ... def set_use_reparse_points(value: bool) -> None: ...
use_reparse_points = property(get_use_reparse_points, set_use_reparse_points)
Default Value
FALSE
Remarks
This property specifies whether the virtual filesystem should indicate to the system that it supports reparse points.
If this property is enabled, the application must properly handle the on_set_reparse_point, on_get_reparse_point, and on_delete_reparse_point events in order for reparse points to function correctly.
Note that reparse points are an expected feature of the NTFS filesystem; if the application is identifying its virtual filesystem (via file_system_name) as NTFS, supporting reparse points is recommended. Reparse point support is also expected by the NFS sharing components of the OS.
Please refer to the Reparse Points topic for more information.
Note: This property cannot be changed when active is True, and cannot be changed within events.
