How to copy the directory using Ant


I have used copydir to copy the directory. Actually my directory contains some sub-directories, and some of those contain files and others contain sub-directories. How do I copy everything?

  1. <copy todir="${dest.dir}" >
    <fileset dir="${src.dir}" includes="**"/>
    </copy>


    believe that will do what you want...

  2. You should only have to specify the directory (sans the includes property):

    <copy todir="../new/dir">
    <fileset dir="src_dir"/>
    </copy>


    See the manual for more details and examples.

  3. From the example here, you can write a simple Ant file using copy task.

    <project name="MyProject" default="copy" basedir=".">
    <target name="copy">
    <copy todir="./new/dir">
    <fileset dir="src_dir"/>
    </copy>
    </target>
    </project>

    This should copy everything inside src_dir (excluding it) to new/dir.

  4. Copy contents including the directory itself.

    <copy todir="${dest.dir}" >
    <fileset dir="${src.dir.parent}">
    <include name="${src.dir}/**"/>
    </fileset>

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
