336
337File::Copy - Copy files or filehandles
338
339=head1 SYNOPSIS
340
341	use File::Copy;
342
343	copy("sourcefile","destinationfile") or die "Copy failed: $!";
344	copy("Copy.pm",\*STDOUT);
345	move("/dev1/sourcefile","/dev2/destinationfile");
346
347	use File::Copy "cp";
348
349	$n = FileHandle->new("/a/file","r");
350	cp($n,"x");
351
352=head1 DESCRIPTION
353
354The File::Copy module provides two basic functions, C<copy> and
355C<move>, which are useful for getting the contents of a file from
356one place to another.
357
358=over 4
359
360=item copy
361X<copy> X<cp>
362
363The C<copy> function takes two
364parameters: a file to copy from and a file to copy to. Either
365argument may be a string, a FileHandle reference or a FileHandle
366glob. Obviously, if the first argument is a filehandle of some
367sort, it will be read from, and if it is a file I<name> it will
368be opened for reading. Likewise, the second argument will be
369written to. If the second argument does not exist but the parent
370directory does exist, then it will be created. Trying to copy
371a file into a non-existent directory is an error.
372Trying to copy a file on top of itself is also an error.
373C<copy> will not overwrite read-only files.
374
375If the destination (second argument) already exists and is a directory,
376and the source (first argument) is not a filehandle, then the source
377file will be copied into the directory specified by the destination,
378using the same base name as the source file.  It's a failure to have a
379filehandle as the source when the destination is a directory.
380
381B<Note that passing in
382files as handles instead of names may lead to loss of information
383on some operating systems; it is recommended that you use file
384names whenever possible.>  Files are opened in binary mode where
385applicable.  To get a consistent behaviour when copying from a
386filehandle to a file, use C<binmode> on the filehandle.
387
388An optional third parameter can be used to specify the buffer
389size used for copying. This is the number of bytes from the
390first file, that will be held in memory at any given time, before
391being written to the second file. The default buffer size depends
392upon the file, but will generally be the whole file (up to 2MB), or
3931k for filehandles that do not reference files (eg. sockets).
394
395You may use the syntax C<use File::Copy "cp"> to get at the C<cp>
396alias for this function. The syntax is I<exactly> the same.  The
397behavior is nearly the same as well: as of version 2.15, C<cp> will
398preserve the source file's permission bits like the shell utility
399C<cp(1)> would do, while C<copy> uses the default permissions for the
400target file (which may depend on the process' C<umask>, file
401ownership, inherited ACLs, etc.).  If an error occurs in setting
402permissions, C<cp> will return 0, regardless of whether the file was
403successfully copied.
404
405=item move
406X<move> X<mv> X<rename>
407
408The C<move> function also takes two parameters: the current name
409and the intended name of the file to be moved.  If the destination
410already exists and is a directory, and the source is not a
411directory, then the source file will be renamed into the directory
412specified by the destination.
413
414If possible, move() will simply rename the file.  Otherwise, it copies
415the file to the new location and deletes the original.  If an error occurs
416during this copy-and-delete process, you may be left with a (possibly partial)
417copy of the file under the destination name.
418
419You may use the C<mv> alias for this function in the same way that
420you may use the C<cp> alias for C<copy>.
421
422=item syscopy
423X<syscopy>
424
425File::Copy also provides the C<syscopy> routine, which copies the
426file specified in the first parameter to the file specified in the
427second parameter, preserving OS-specific attributes and file
428structure.  For Unix systems, this is equivalent to the simple
429C<copy> routine, which doesn't preserve OS-specific attributes.  For
430VMS systems, this calls the C<rmscopy> routine (see below).  For OS/2
431systems, this calls the C<syscopy> XSUB directly. For Win32 systems,
432this calls C<Win32::CopyFile>.
433
434B<Special behaviour if C<syscopy> is defined (OS/2, VMS and Win32)>:
435
436If both arguments to C<copy> are not file handles,
437then C<copy> will perform a "system copy" of
438the input file to a new output file, in order to preserve file
439attributes, indexed file structure, I<etc.>  The buffer size
440parameter is ignored.  If either argument to C<copy> is a
441handle to an opened file, then data is copied using Perl
442operators, and no effort is made to preserve file attributes
443or record structure.
444
445The system copy routine may also be called directly under VMS and OS/2
446as C<File::Copy::syscopy> (or under VMS as C<File::Copy::rmscopy>, which
447is the routine that does the actual work for syscopy).
448
449=item rmscopy($from,$to[,$date_flag])
450X<rmscopy>
451
452The first and second arguments may be strings, typeglobs, typeglob
453references, or objects inheriting from IO::Handle;
454they are used in all cases to obtain the
455I<filespec> of the input and output files, respectively.  The
456name and type of the input file are used as defaults for the
457output file, if necessary.
458
459A new version of the output file is always created, which
460inherits the structure and RMS attributes of the input file,
461except for owner and protections (and possibly timestamps;
462see below).  All data from the input file is copied to the
463output file; if either of the first two parameters to C<rmscopy>
464is a file handle, its position is unchanged.  (Note that this
465means a file handle pointing to the output file will be
466associated with an old version of that file after C<rmscopy>
467returns, not the newly created version.)
468
469The third parameter is an integer flag, which tells C<rmscopy>
470how to handle timestamps.  If it is E<lt> 0, none of the input file's
471timestamps are propagated to the output file.  If it is E<gt> 0, then
472it is interpreted as a bitmask: if bit 0 (the LSB) is set, then
473timestamps other than the revision date are propagated; if bit 1
474is set, the revision date is propagated.  If the third parameter
475to C<rmscopy> is 0, then it behaves much like the DCL COPY command:
476if the name or type of the output file was explicitly specified,
477then no timestamps are propagated, but if they were taken implicitly
478from the input filespec, then all timestamps other than the
479revision date are propagated.  If this parameter is not supplied,
480it defaults to 0.
481
