MoveAndCopyFiles.java
You need to change the path for
current
in the first statement in
main()
to something suitable for your
environment. On my system I got the following output:
D:\Beginning Java SE 7\Projects\MoveAndCopyFiles\classes\junkDir
directory created.
Copying files from D:\Beginning Java SE 7\Projects\MoveAndCopyFiles to
D:\Beginning Java SE
7\Projects\MoveAndCopyFiles\classes\junkDir
Starting copy...
MoveAndCopyFiles.jcp copied.
MoveAndCopyFiles.jcu copied.
MoveAndCopyFiles.jcw copied.
src_moveandcopyfiles.txt copied.
You can look at the directory to verify that the copy has worked.
Press Enter to continue.
