'Usage
 
Dim instance As FileSystemItem

Dim events As FileSystemEvents

Dim userData As Object

Dim destinationFolder As AbstractFolder

Dim replaceExistingFiles As Boolean

Dim value As FileSystemItem

 

value = instance.CopyTo(events, userData, destinationFolder, replaceExistingFiles)

public FileSystemItem CopyTo( 

   FileSystemEvents events,

   object userData,

   AbstractFolder destinationFolder,

   bool replaceExistingFiles

)

Parameters

events

A FileSystemEvents object that will be used to raise events. Cannot be a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

userData

Opaque data that will be passed back to the event handler when an event is raised.

destinationFolder

An AbstractFolder object into which the item will be copied. Cannot be a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

replaceExistingFiles

true if existing items in the destination should be replaced; false otherwise.

Return Value

If the physical folder specified by destinationFolder does not exist, it is created.

If this FileSystemItem object represents a file, the physical file is immediately copied to the destination folder.

If it represents a folder, the folder and all it's content (files and subfolders) is immediately copied to the destination.

When replaceExistingFiles is true, any item in the destination that has the same name as an item being copied is automatically replaced.

When replaceExistingFiles is false, an exception is thrown whenever the destination contains an item with the same name as an item being copied.

ApplyPropertiesTo(FileSystemItem) 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
