如何在Go中检测到损坏的符号链接？

Question

I have tried opening the file with ff, _ := os.Open("Filename") and then running ffi, _ := ff.Stat().

Which is the closest thing I could find that provides any details, but that doesn't seem to be following the symlinks.

What I'm really trying to do is extract the original file name (which is deleted) from the symlink.

I'm on a Linux machine.

Answer 1

os.Readlink(filename) does it.
