Public Overloads Function CopyTo( _

   ByVal destinationFile As AbstractFile, _

   ByVal replaceIfExists As Boolean _

) As FileSystemItem

'Usage
 
Dim instance As AbstractFile

Dim destinationFile As AbstractFile

Dim replaceIfExists As Boolean

Dim value As FileSystemItem

 

value = instance.CopyTo(destinationFile, replaceIfExists)

public FileSystemItem CopyTo( 

   AbstractFile destinationFile,

   bool replaceIfExists

)

Parameters

destinationFile

An AbstractFile object that represents the file to which the current file's data must be copied. Cannot be a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

replaceIfExists

true if the destination file should be replaced if it exists; false otherwise.

Return Value

This method only copies the data of a file to another file.

If the file specified by destinationFile does not exist, it is created. If it does exist, an exception is thrown if replaceIfExists is false, or it is overwritten if replaceIfExists is true.

FileSystemItem.ApplyPropertiesTo is called on the destination item; therefore, the attributes and dates of the original item are applied to the destination item.

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
