Children of a link

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I am trying to return an xml structure for a folder hierarchy via a freemarker template.  The hierarchy contains linked containers and nodes and I would like those nodes to be returned as well.  I can return everything but the content of a linked container. I am on Alfresco 4.0.2. and can't tell what I am doing incorrectly.  Here is my code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<#macro recurse_macro node>
   <#if (node.isContainer || node.isLinkToContainer)>
           <folder name="${node.name}">
              <#list node.children as child>
                      <#if (child.isContainer || child.isLinkToContainer) && node.children?size != 0 >
                         <@recurse_macro node=child />
                       </#if>
            <#if (child.isDocument || child.isLinkToDocument) >
            <file name="${child.name?html}"
                         
                              mimetype="${child.properties.content.mimetype}"
                              size="${child.properties.content.size}"
                      
                      />
            </#if>
                    </#list>
                 </folder>
   </#if>
</#macro>

<rootFolder displayPath="${folder.displayPath}" name="${folder.name}">
<#list folder.children as child>
<@recurse_macro node=child/>
</#list>
</rootFolder>

If you go look in the node browser at nodes that are links, you'll see that they don't have any children. But they do have a property called "cm:destination". So you can do something like:

<#if (node.isLinkToContainer)>
    <@recurse_macro node=node.properties.destination />
</#if>
