Symbolic links and file tests in perl

- Subject: Symbolic links and file tests in perl
I tried doing a if(-l $file) where $file was the name of a symbolically linked directory in the current working directory and it returned a false. Doing a (-d $file) returned true.
Is there any way to work around this and then retrieve the real path of a symbolically linked directory under cygwin?
