I never thought that put symbolic links on dropbox was good idea... But I see where it might come from. When my startup started, my associate nagged me to death to me put my files on Google Drive, like the artist already did. I ended doing it, just to show him that it would not end well... In fact, the result was worse than expected, Mac OS X store folder icons inside the folder, the SDK I was using use ALL files in a folder to build a application (does not matter what those files do), the end result was the Google Drive created icons getting shipped with the apps, that just flat out crashed the testing devices... It took 1 week to figure out why all the crashing, and also to make Google Drive not conflict with some other stuff, hardlinking was required, and took more 3 days to undo the hardlinks. Thus, lesson: DON'T, JUST DON'T. But sometimes a person might nag you to do it, then by all means do it, it will fall on their head and they will learn (of course, if it is a intelligent person, if you have a dumb boss, then I fell sorry for you). |
