Describe the problem and the steps to reproduce it.
If a directory contains a hardlink to another directory, heat.exe reports "heat.exe : error HEAT5052 : The directory 'PATH' could not be found.". Deleting the hardlinks stops the error. Symlinks (ie. files) do not cause the error.
Create a directory (SOURCEDIR)
Create a "readme.txt" file in SOURCEDIR
Create a hardlink to another directory in SOURCEDIR
Execute: %WIX%\bin\heat dir SOURCEDIR -nologo -var var.MySource -ag -cg source_files -dr INSTALLDIR -template fragment -sreg -sfrag -srd -ke -o source.wxs
Notice that the error appears immediately
Delete the hardlink from step 3
Execute the command from step 4
Notice that there is no error
