How to: Copy directories
This article demonstrates how to use I/O classes to synchronously copy the contents of a directory to another location.
For an example of asynchronous file copy, see Asynchronous file I/O.
This example copies subdirectories by setting the recursive
parameter of the CopyDirectory
method to true
. The CopyDirectory
method recursively copies subdirectories by calling itself on each subdirectory until there are no more to copy.
Example
using System.IO;
CopyDirectory(@".\", @".\copytest", true);
static void CopyDirectory(string sourceDir, string destinationDir, bool recursive)
{
// Get information about the source directory
var dir = new DirectoryInfo(sourceDir);
// Check if the source directory exists
if (!dir.Exists)
throw new DirectoryNotFoundException($"Source directory not found: {dir.FullName}");
// Cache directories before we start copying
DirectoryInfo[] dirs = dir.GetDirectories();
// Create the destination directory
Directory.CreateDirectory(destinationDir);
// Get the files in the source directory and copy to the destination directory
foreach (FileInfo file in dir.GetFiles())
{
string targetFilePath = Path.Combine(destinationDir, file.Name);
file.CopyTo(targetFilePath);
}
// If recursive and copying subdirectories, recursively call this method
if (recursive)
{
foreach (DirectoryInfo subDir in dirs)
{
string newDestinationDir = Path.Combine(destinationDir, subDir.Name);
CopyDirectory(subDir.FullName, newDestinationDir, true);
}
}
}
Imports System.IO
Module Program
Sub Main(args As String())
CopyDirectory(".\", ".\copytest", True)
End Sub
Public Sub CopyDirectory(sourceDir As String, destinationDir As String, recursive As Boolean)
' Get information about the source directory
Dim dir As New DirectoryInfo(sourceDir)
' Check if the source directory exists
If Not dir.Exists Then
Throw New DirectoryNotFoundException($"Source directory not found: {dir.FullName}")
End If
' Cache directories before we start copying
Dim dirs As DirectoryInfo() = dir.GetDirectories()
' Create the destination directory
Directory.CreateDirectory(destinationDir)
' Get the files in the source directory and copy to the destination directory
For Each file As FileInfo In dir.GetFiles()
Dim targetFilePath As String = Path.Combine(destinationDir, file.Name)
file.CopyTo(targetFilePath)
Next
' If recursive and copying subdirectories, recursively call this method
If recursive Then
For Each subDir As DirectoryInfo In dirs
Dim newDestinationDir As String = Path.Combine(destinationDir, subDir.Name)
CopyDirectory(subDir.FullName, newDestinationDir, True)
Next
End If
End Sub
End Module
