CopyFile info  Overview  Group

The CopyFile function copies an existing file to a new file.

BOOL CopyFile(

    LPCTSTR lpExistingFileName,

// pointer to name of an existing file

    LPCTSTR lpNewFileName,

// pointer to filename to copy to

    BOOL bFailIfExists 

// flag for operation if file exists

   );

Parameters

lpExistingFileName
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of an existing file.
lpNewFileName
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the new file.
bFailIfExists
Specifies how this operation is to proceed if a file of the same name as that specified by lpNewFileName already exists. If this parameter is TRUE and the new file already exists, the function fails. If this parameter is FALSE and the new file already exists, the function overwrites the existing file and succeeds.

Return Values

If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks

Security attributes for the existing file are not copied to the new file.

File attributes (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_*) for the existing file are copied to the new file. For example, if an existing file has the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY file attribute, a copy created through a call to CopyFile will also have the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY file attribute. For further information on file attributes, see CreateFile.
