Use autoref with minted and its listing environment

Question

I would like to use autoref from the hyperref package to create a reference to a floating listing as provided by minted. This code

\documentclass[a4paper]{book}
\usepackage{minted}
\usepackage{hyperref}

\begin{document}
\chapter{My chapter}
Take a look at the code in \autoref{lst:mylisting}.
\begin{listing}[htb]
  \begin{minted}{erlang}
    foo
    bar
  \end{minted}
  \caption{My listing}
  \label{lst:mylisting}
\end{listing}
\end{document}

should produce something like Listing 1.1 with a link around it. I don't want to use Listing~\ref{lst:mylisting}, because it wouldn't be consistent with all the other links produced by autoref.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

The trick is to define a macro called \listingname or \listingautorefname which stores the name hyperref should use for the reference. In your case, adding the line

\providecommand*{\listingautorefname}{Listing}

produces correct references.
