# Helper script used by the NestedVM cmake build script.
#
# Usage:   glob-symlinks.py <srcdir> <wildcard> [<srcdir> <wildcard> ...]
#
# Each pair of command-line arguments is treated as a source
# directory, followed by either a single filename or a wildcard.
#
# The result is to create symlinks in the program's working directory
# mirroring all the files matched by the filenames/wildcards, each
# pointing at the appropriate source directory.
#
# For example, this command
#   glob-symlinks.py /foo \*.txt /bar wibble.blah
# might create symlinks as follows:
#   this.txt -> /foo/this.txt
#   that.txt -> /foo/that.txt
#   wibble.blah -> /bar/wibble.blah
#
# CMake could mostly do this itself, except that some of the files
# that need symlinking during the NestedVM build (to make a tree that
# we archive up into a .jar file) are Java class files with some
# '$suffix' in the name, and CMake doesn't escape the $ signs, so that
# the suffix vanishes during shell expansion.
