Perhaps I'm not reading this correctly, but you are trying to shell to
the OS and execute cp, yes? If so, cp will work just dandy for *nix
but for Windows machines you are looking for copy (unless you have a
cp.bat file which essentially aliases copy)
Is there a problem using the <copy/> task?

Subject: Copying a file recursively
I'm attempting to copy a file recursively throughout a directory tree.
Here
is the target that I'm trying:
<target name="make" depends="init">
<apply executable="cp" dest="." dir="." type="dir"
failonerror="yes">
<targetfile/>
<srcfile/>
<fileset dir=".">
<patternset refid="all.sources"/>
</fileset>
<mapper type="merge" to="file_to_copy"/>
</apply>
</target>
where the all.source pattern is
<patternset id="all.sources">
<include name="**/*.java"/>
</patternset>
When I run ant with verbose and debug options, I get the following
output for
this target:
make:
[apply] Myos = Windows NT
[apply] cp
Can anyone give me some hints on how to fix this? Thanks.
