file copy
in [Ruby]

From: John Wu on 26 May 2010 22:57 Hi I am having a weird problem. I have the following code. require "fileutils" FileUtils.cp '/path/to/file.txt', '/path/to/archive/file-date.txt' File.open('/path/to/file.txt', 'w') What I want to do is copy file.txt content to file-date.txt in a sub directory, then reset file.txt to empty. But after I run the code above, both file.txt and file-date.txt are reset to empty file. What am I missing here? Thanks a lot! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

What am I missing here? Maybe /path/to/file.txt is a symlink or /path/to is liked to /path/to/archive or /path/to/file.txt is really the same as /path/to/archive/file-date.txt. Somehow I have the feeling you don't show the real code. Kind regards robert -- remember.guy do |as, often| as.you_can - without end http://blog.rubybestpractices.com/

What am I missing here? It seems everything is ok in my computer! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
