I see that junctions are a common way of referencing shared code in many projects. However, I have not seen them used in web applications before.

Our team is exploring the possibility of abandoning virtual directories in favor of junctions to simplify our build process. My goal is to compile a list of pros and cons in order to make an informed decision regarding this change.

Is it more appropriate to use junctions or virtual directories on web application projects?

Environment is ASP.NET, IIS6/IIS7, VS.NET.
