Miguel Munoz created IO-790:
-------------------------------

             Summary: SymbolicLinkFileFilter Incomplete, needs to handle Windows issues
                 Key: IO-790
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-790
             Project: Commons IO
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Miguel Munoz


Testing SymbolicLinkFileFilter on Windows has a unique challenge. Windows requires admin privileges to create symbolic links, which can't be done in a unit test run  on Windows. The unit test needs to create symbolic links, but override the behavior on Windows Only. And it needs to run seamlessly on any platform. (This is doable.)
