Yes, I am sure I could, but I'm looking for a more programatical way of doing it.

Can you system("cp -ax /blah /bloop");  and just check the retval?

List,Adam,
    Since the code for CP is open, could you just look in there?  You
could
even trace the path for how cp executes with -ax to have yours
automagically
do that. I think you can get code for CP from GNU (isn't that who makes
it?)

Subject: File Copying Library


Since today seems to be filled with programming questions, i thought I
would send mine in. Is there a library out there somewhere that
provides the functionality of the "cp" program? I need to incorporate
the ability to copy files into a program of mine, and so far the best
that I have been able to come up with is trying to integrate the "cp"
source code into my project. There has to be an easier way. Does
anybody have one?

ahp

P.S. -- Essentially all my program is doing is a "cp -ax /blah
/blah-dest". The language is C.
