Description

The file selection dialog doesn't follow Windows shortcut (.lnk),
but the .lnk file itself is selected.
It should follow the link location when selected.

The GTK+ file selector (GtkFileChooser) doesn't implement Windows shortcut handling.
Probably the following Windows APIs can be used.

  • IShellLink::QueryInterface()
  • IShellLink::GetPath()
  • IShellLink::Release()
  • IPersistFile::Load()
  • IPersistFile::Release()
  • CoInitialize()
  • CoCreateInstance()
  • CoUninitialize()
