Think I want to copy this file C:\Majid\File\text.txt
to D:\Copied
(C:\Majid\File\text.txt ---> D:\Copied
)
I want to use Xcopy to copy that file with its full directory into D:\Copied
, then I should have something like this ---> D:\Copied\Majid\File\text.txt
, as you see the drive letter is removed and all of other directory is created in destination directory.
How can I do this action by XCopy?
see this:
XCOPY COMMAND
... Syntax xcopy Source [Destination] [/w] [/p] [/c] [/v] [/q] [/f] [/l] [/g] [/d[:mm-dd-yyyy]] [/u] [/i] [/s [/e]] [/t] [/k] [/r] [/h] [{/a|/m}] [/n] [/o] [/x] [/exclude:file1[+[file2]][+[file3]] [{/y|/-y}] [/z] ...
what you will find interesting in that page is this:
/s : Copies directories and subdirectories, unless they are empty. If you omit /s, xcopy works within a single directory.
set sourceFolder="C:\test\new folder\text.txt"
set destinationFolder=%sourceFolder:~3,-1%
echo %destinationFolder%
xcopy %sourceFolder% "D:\xcopied%destinationFolder%"
Something like that could work. Remove the first few characters of the source ("C:"), then add the characters for the destination folder ("D:\xcopied").
