CopyFile
The CopyFile function copies an existing file to a new file.
BOOL CopyFile(
LPCTSTR lpExistingFileName,
| // pointer to name of an existing file
| LPCTSTR lpNewFileName,
| // pointer to filename to copy to
| BOOL bFailIfExists
| // flag for operation if file exists
| );
|
|
Parameters
lpExistingFileName
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of an existing
file.
lpNewFileName
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the new file.
bFailIfExists
Specifies how this operation is to proceed if a file of the same name as that
specified by lpNewFileName already exists. If this parameter is TRUE and the new file already exists,
the function fails. If this parameter is FALSE and the new file already exists,
the function overwrites the existing file and succeeds.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
Security attributes for the existing file are not copied to the new file.
File attributes (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_*) for the existing file are copied to the new
file. For example, if an existing file has the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY file
attribute, a copy created through a call to CopyFile will also have the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY file attribute. For further
information on file attributes, see CreateFile.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
