movefile

Move file or directory

Calling Sequence

movefile('source','destination')
[status,message] = movefile('source','destination')

Description

movefile('source','destination') moves the file or directory , source (and subdirectories) to the file or directory, destination.

If source is a directory, destination can not be a file. movefile replaces existing files without warning.

[status, message] = movefile('source','destination') moves source to destination, returning the status and a message.

Whatever the operating system, if the move succeeds, the status is 1 and the message is empty ; if the move fails, the status is 0 and the message is not empty.

Examples

copyfile(SCI+"/etc/scilab.start",TMPDIR+"/scilab.start")
[status,message] = movefile(TMPDIR+"/scilab.start",TMPDIR+"/renamed_scilab.start")
