| <h2><a name="copydir">Copydir</a></h2> |
| <h3><i>Deprecated</i></h3> |
| <p><i>This task has been deprecated. Use the Copy task instead.</i></p> |
| <h3>Description</h3> |
| <p>Copies a directory tree from the source to the destination.</p> |
| <p>It is possible to refine the set of files that are being copied. This can be |
| done with the <i>includes</i>, <i>includesfile</i>, <i>excludes</i>, <i>excludesfile</i> and <i>defaultexcludes</i> |
| attributes. With the <i>includes</i> or <i>includesfile</i> attribute you specify the files you want to |
| have included by using patterns. The <i>exclude</i> or <i>excludesfile</i> attribute is used to specify |
| the files you want to have excluded. This is also done with patterns. And |
| finally with the <i>defaultexcludes</i> attribute, you can specify whether you |
| want to use default exclusions or not. See the section on <a |
| href="../dirtasks.html#directorybasedtasks">directory based tasks</a>, on how the |
| inclusion/exclusion of files works, and how to write patterns.</p> |
| <p>This task forms an implicit <a href="../CoreTypes/fileset.html">FileSet</a> and |
| supports all attributes of <code><fileset></code> |
| (<code>dir</code> becomes <code>src</code>) as well as the nested |
| <code><include></code>, <code><exclude></code> and |
| <code><patternset></code> elements.</p> |
