How use exec, execlp, ....

Hello,

I need to do a function in ansi c for linux that work like command cp.I try with this but doesn't work:

Code:
int copy (char *src, char *dst)
{
ret = execlp("/bin/cp", "cp", "/home/linux/working", (char*)src,(char*)dst)
return 0;
}

The copy function must do the next "cp origein.txt destiny.txt" using th path directory called "/home/linux/working"

Thanks!
