Hi,

I needed a recursive copying of one directory to another.
Here's my source to do that:
/** Copies the source folder with its entire subtree into the destination 
folder.
 * So copyFolder(new File("/aaa"), new File("/bbb")) will create a folder /bbb/
aaa into which all the content of /aaa is copied.
 * In case /bbb/aaa already exists there's no exception etc.  
 * @param source A file or folder. Folders are copied with all their content. 
For files this method is equal to {@link FileUtils#copyFileToDirectory(java.io.
File, java.io.File)}.
 * @param destinationDirectory Where to copy the files and folders.
 * @throws IOException if any access problems or other IO issues occur during 
copying.
 */
public static void copyDirectoryToDirectory(File source, File 
destinationDirectory) throws IOException
{
	if (destinationDirectory.exists() && destinationDirectory.isFile())
		throw new IllegalArgumentException("The destinationDirectory must be a 
directory! destination = '" + destinationDirectory + "'");
	if (source.isFile())
		FileUtils.copyFileToDirectory(source, destinationDirectory);
	else
	{
		File copyDest = new File(destinationDirectory + File.separator + source.
getName());
		FileUtils.forceMkdir(copyDest);
		
		// recursive copy
		File[] files = source.listFiles();
		for (int i = 0; i < files.length; ++i)
			copyDirectoryToDirectory(files[i], copyDest);
	}
}
