A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
It would be incredibly nice to have a copyTo feature added to the File (Java.io.File) class that function like this:
File file = new File("the directory");
File fileDest = new File("the destination directory");
file.copyTo(fileDest);
That would be very very good for all of us developers
JUSTIFICATION :
it would drastically shorten code lengths and also make the programming process much better
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
make a copy of the selected file and paste it in the specified directory
ACTUAL -
see above^
---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
import java.io.File;
try
{
File file = new File("the directory");
File fileDest = new File("the destination directory");
file.copyTo(fileDest);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
System.err.println("Error!");
}
---------- END SOURCE ----------
CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
write a really long unneccessary code i guess....
