<h2 id="copydir">Copydir</h2>
<h3><em><u>Deprecated</u></em></h3>
<p><em>This task has been <u>deprecated</u>.  Use the <code>Copy</code> task instead.</em></p>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>Copies a directory tree from the source to the destination.</p>
<p>It is possible to refine the set of files that are being copied. This can be done with
the <var>includes</var>, <var>includesfile</var>, <var>excludes</var>, <var>excludesfile</var>
and <var>defaultexcludes</var> attributes. With the <var>includes</var> or <var>includesfile</var>
attribute you specify the files you want to have included by using patterns. The <var>exclude</var>
or <var>excludesfile</var> attribute is used to specify the files you want to have excluded. This is
also done with patterns. And finally with the <var>defaultexcludes</var> attribute, you can specify
whether you want to use default exclusions or not. See the section
on <a href="../dirtasks.html#directorybasedtasks">directory based tasks</a>, on how the
inclusion/exclusion of files works, and how to write patterns.</p>
<p>This task forms an implicit <a href="../Types/fileset.html">FileSet</a> and supports most
attributes of <code>&lt;fileset&gt;</code> (<var>dir</var> becomes <var>src</var>) as well as the
nested <code>&lt;include&gt;</code>, <code>&lt;exclude&gt;</code>
and <code>&lt;patternset&gt;</code> elements.</p>
