Non recursive share

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Tue Apr 27, 2004 3:49 pm

Is there a way to branch (or not share or break a share) a folder that is within a shared folder? The share behavior is ideal for the files in the std folder and its lib subfolder but those in the data folder need to evolve separately.
Here is an attempt to demonstrate the structure I would like.

std/*.*
std/lib/*.*
std/data/*.*

project1/*.* (files shared from std)
project1/lib (folder shared from std)
project1/data (unique to project1)

project2/*.* (files shared from std)
project2/lib (folder shared from std)
project2/data (unique to project2)

Thanks for any suggestions.

We don't support a non-recursive share on folders - it would be a very complicated feature to support. So, you would have to share the folders lower in the tree, and share files in places where you don't want subfolders shared.

We have had requests for recursive file share (so the files are shared, but the folders are not). This is something we want to eventually add. Would that help your situation?
