f716a1dd 317
318=head1 DESCRIPTION
319
441496b2 320The File::Copy module provides two basic functions, C<copy> and
321C<move>, which are useful for getting the contents of a file from
322one place to another.
323
324=over 4
325
0cdecedb 326=item copy
327X<copy> X<cp>
441496b2 328
329The C<copy> function takes two
f716a1dd 330parameters: a file to copy from and a file to copy to. Either
331argument may be a string, a FileHandle reference or a FileHandle
332glob. Obviously, if the first argument is a filehandle of some
333sort, it will be read from, and if it is a file I<name> it will
334be opened for reading. Likewise, the second argument will be
96a91e01 335written to (and created if need be). Trying to copy a file on top
336of itself is a fatal error.
71be2cbc 337
338B<Note that passing in
9b957b78 339files as handles instead of names may lead to loss of information
340on some operating systems; it is recommended that you use file
e6434134 341names whenever possible.> Files are opened in binary mode where
8dcee03e 342applicable. To get a consistent behaviour when copying from a
e6434134 343filehandle to a file, use C<binmode> on the filehandle.
f716a1dd 344
345An optional third parameter can be used to specify the buffer
346size used for copying. This is the number of bytes from the
3a964d77 347first file, that will be held in memory at any given time, before
f716a1dd 348being written to the second file. The default buffer size depends
338de517 349upon the file, but will generally be the whole file (up to 2MB), or
f716a1dd 3501k for filehandles that do not reference files (eg. sockets).
351
352You may use the syntax C<use File::Copy "cp"> to get at the
353"cp" alias for this function. The syntax is I<exactly> the same.
354
0cdecedb 355=item move
356X<move> X<mv> X<rename>
441496b2 357
358The C<move> function also takes two parameters: the current name
71be2cbc 359and the intended name of the file to be moved. If the destination
360already exists and is a directory, and the source is not a
361directory, then the source file will be renamed into the directory
362specified by the destination.
363
364If possible, move() will simply rename the file. Otherwise, it copies
365the file to the new location and deletes the original. If an error occurs
366during this copy-and-delete process, you may be left with a (possibly partial)
441496b2 367copy of the file under the destination name.
368
369You may use the "mv" alias for this function in the same way that
370you may use the "cp" alias for C<copy>.
371
0cdecedb 372=item syscopy
373X<syscopy>
441496b2 374
9b957b78 375File::Copy also provides the C<syscopy> routine, which copies the
376file specified in the first parameter to the file specified in the
377second parameter, preserving OS-specific attributes and file
378structure. For Unix systems, this is equivalent to the simple
f1442e8b 379C<copy> routine, which doesn't preserve OS-specific attributes. For
380VMS systems, this calls the C<rmscopy> routine (see below). For OS/2
381systems, this calls the C<syscopy> XSUB directly. For Win32 systems,
382this calls C<Win32::CopyFile>.
9b957b78 383
bcdb689b 384On Mac OS (Classic), C<syscopy> calls C<Mac::MoreFiles::FSpFileCopy>,
385if available.
386
338de517 387B<Special behaviour if C<syscopy> is defined (OS/2, VMS and Win32)>:
9b957b78 388
71be2cbc 389If both arguments to C<copy> are not file handles,
390then C<copy> will perform a "system copy" of
9b957b78 391the input file to a new output file, in order to preserve file
392attributes, indexed file structure, I<etc.> The buffer size
71be2cbc 393parameter is ignored. If either argument to C<copy> is a
394handle to an opened file, then data is copied using Perl
9b957b78 395operators, and no effort is made to preserve file attributes
396or record structure.
397
55497cff 398The system copy routine may also be called directly under VMS and OS/2
399as C<File::Copy::syscopy> (or under VMS as C<File::Copy::rmscopy>, which
71be2cbc 400is the routine that does the actual work for syscopy).
9b957b78 401
402=item rmscopy($from,$to[,$date_flag])
0cdecedb 403X<rmscopy>
9b957b78 404
71be2cbc 405The first and second arguments may be strings, typeglobs, typeglob
406references, or objects inheriting from IO::Handle;
407they are used in all cases to obtain the
9b957b78 408I<filespec> of the input and output files, respectively. The
409name and type of the input file are used as defaults for the
410output file, if necessary.
411
412A new version of the output file is always created, which
413inherits the structure and RMS attributes of the input file,
414except for owner and protections (and possibly timestamps;
415see below). All data from the input file is copied to the
416output file; if either of the first two parameters to C<rmscopy>
417is a file handle, its position is unchanged. (Note that this
418means a file handle pointing to the output file will be
419associated with an old version of that file after C<rmscopy>
420returns, not the newly created version.)
421
422The third parameter is an integer flag, which tells C<rmscopy>
1fef88e7 423how to handle timestamps. If it is E<lt> 0, none of the input file's
424timestamps are propagated to the output file. If it is E<gt> 0, then
9b957b78 425it is interpreted as a bitmask: if bit 0 (the LSB) is set, then
426timestamps other than the revision date are propagated; if bit 1
427is set, the revision date is propagated. If the third parameter
428to C<rmscopy> is 0, then it behaves much like the DCL COPY command:
429if the name or type of the output file was explicitly specified,
430then no timestamps are propagated, but if they were taken implicitly
431from the input filespec, then all timestamps other than the
432revision date are propagated. If this parameter is not supplied,
433it defaults to 0.
434
435Like C<copy>, C<rmscopy> returns 1 on success. If an error occurs,
436it sets C<$!>, deletes the output file, and returns 0.

441496b2 442All functions return 1 on success, 0 on failure.
443$! will be set if an error was encountered.

450
451On Mac OS (Classic), the path separator is ':', not '/', and the
452current directory is denoted as ':', not '.'. You should be careful
453about specifying relative pathnames. While a full path always begins
454with a volume name, a relative pathname should always begin with a
455':'. If specifying a volume name only, a trailing ':' is required.
456
457E.g.
458
459 copy("file1", "tmp"); # creates the file 'tmp' in the current directory
460 copy("file1", ":tmp:"); # creates :tmp:file1
461 copy("file1", ":tmp"); # same as above
0cdecedb 462 copy("file1", "tmp"); # same as above, if 'tmp' is a directory (but don't do
6c254d95 463 # that, since it may cause confusion, see example #1)
