copyRecursive

public static void copyRecursive(Path source,
 Path target,
 CopyOption... copyOptions)
                          throws IOException

Copy a directory to a target directory recursively.

This method performs a copy much like Files.copy(Path, Path, CopyOption...). Unlike Files.copy(Path, Path, CopyOption...) is can also copy non-empty directories.

This method makes a best effort to copy attributes across different file system providers.

Known Issues:

• hard links will not be handled correctly

Parameters:

source - the path to the file to copy

target - the path to the target file (may be associated with a different provider to the source path)

copyOptions - options specifying how the copy should be done

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs
