copy all files of a path

thread192-1674565

copy all files of a path

copy all files of a path

(OP)
Always in C5ee,

is the Clarion command "copy" able to copy all files of a path to another (or copy a path).

As I'm not able to use run('command.com ...')(see the my other thread about makedir), I don't know how to do.

Thanks for help a "poor" user

best regards

Phil

Using

run('command.com /c copy photos\*.* SiteWeb\photos\*.*',1)

is good but don't manage long name files

RE: copy all files of a path

Hi!

Try putting the long path within double quotes.

Hi ShankarJ

no, it's don't works

I try with xcopy command

!run('command.com /c copy photos\*.* SiteWeb\photos\*.*',1)
run('command.com /c xcopy/y/a photos SiteWeb\photos',1)

The copy is good (with long names) but the program is blocked at the end (I have to do ctrl+alt+del  ... to continue the script and stop)


grrrrrrrrrrrrr

RE: copy all files of a path

I try with this command and that is good

run('cmd.exe /c copy "source file\*.*" "target file"',1)

RE: copy all files of a path

(OP)
Thank you verry much

The same think with run('cmd.exe /c copy "source file\*.*" "target file"',1) and run('command.com /c xcopy/y/a photos SiteWeb\photos',1)

The copy is good (with long names) but the program is blocked after the cmd prompt line is closed and I have to do ctrl+alt+del  ... to continue the script and then stop at the end of the script)
