copy() only works on single files.

Heya, Swethak.

Do you need to copy the folder, or can you simply move it? PHP's rename() function works on directories (http://php.net/rename).

Hi, I'm trying to use the File.Copy() function. It works well when the desenation file is local (Like: C:\dest\dest.exe). The problem is that when I'm trying to copy to a destenation that starts with '\\' it doesnt work and exception is thrown (for example: \\MyComputer\DestDirectory). Even if the first and the second directories are actually the same- the File.Copy() doesn't work. Is there any way to copy a file to a different computer?...

I created my first application using a MS SQL db and ASP.NET. The app uses two tables in this db. I then needed to create another app that uses the same db, but two other identically structured tables. My first instinct was to just copy the aspx pages, but that caused problems. (vs.net said it could not open the pages in design view). So i then tried to copy the project to another folder, so i could just change things to refer to the...

Hi, I have created an ASP.NET application (let's call it FooBar) with VS.NET on my local machine, residing in http://localhost/FooBar. Deploying it to another folder on my machine works well with FrontPage Server Extensions, but I don't manage to deploy the application to my web provider http root folder. When I run Copy Project, I get an error message just saying 'Unable to create Web project 'myname'. Not found.'.

Hi all, It's always the simple stuff that trips you up I guess. Here is the issue I'm dealing with. I have a folder with 1400 excel files that I need to move to another location. Since each file has to go in to a particular target folder I decided that writing a program to move the files is they way to go. I've got all but this last piece down. and for the life of me I can't

All, This is sort of a continuation of a previous post of mine. The code below basically reads a registry key to get a path to a folder and it watches for files created in that folder (only created). It also reads another registry key for another path which is a destination path. When a file shows up, it copies it off. It actually works well . . . For small duty stuff but if for example I were to copy in multiple small files...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
