Having opened a directory with opendir() and using readdir() to read out it's entries, I check whether the entry is a symbolic link and if so I'd like to use the name of the target.
(Let's say we have a directory exampledir, in it a file that's a symbolic link called linkfile linking to a directory /path/to/link/target)
Here's a simplified snippet:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <dirent.h>
// ...
const char *path_to_dir = "./exampledir";
DIR *dir = opendir(path_to_dir);
dirent *entry = readdir(dir);
if (entry->d_type == DT_LNK) {
// find out the link target's name and store / use it,
// but how...?
}
