Example (PHP)
This example copies the file Library://Geography/World.MapDefinition to Library://Atlas/World Geography.MapDefinition: // Assuming $resourceService is already initialized.
$source_resourceID= new MgResourceIdentifier("Library://Geography/World.MapDefinition");
$destination_resourceID= new MgResourceIdentifier("Library://Atlas/World Geography.MapDefinition");
$resourceService->CopyResource($source_resourceID, $destination_resourceID, true);
This example copies the folder Library://Geography/ to Library://World/Oceans/: $source_resourceID= new MgResourceIdentifier("Library://Geography/");
$destination_resourceID= new MgResourceIdentifier("Library://World/Oceans/");
$resourceService->CopyResource($source_resourceID, $destination_resourceID, true);
- Exceptions:
-
- Note:
- When copying a folder with the "overwrite" flag turned on, if the destination folder already exists, then only the children in the destination folder that have the same names as those in the source folder are overwritten. The rest should are left intact.
