Copy directory using Qt

Question

I want to copy a directory from one drive to another drive. My selected directory contains many sub directories and files.

How can I implement the same using Qt?

Answer 1

I have made a library to manipulate files by a shell command style API. It supports a recursively copy of files and handled several more conditions.

https://github.com/benlau/qtshell#cp

Example

cp("-a", ":/*", "/target"); // copy all files from qrc resource to target path recursively

cp("tmp.txt", "/tmp");

cp("*.txt", "/tmp");

cp("/tmp/123.txt", "456.txt");

cp("-va","src/*", "/tmp");

cp("-a", ":resource","/target");
