Well, I need help again sooner as I thought. Now I want to search for files with a known name within all subdirs, and copy the to differently named files in the same directory.
For example if I had only one file to copy, I would just use
but to do this recursively I would probably need find. I think I need something like
but I don't know how to put the target path instead of ...
As far as I know, the find output {} includes both path and filename "foundPath/fileName". I have to somehow keep the path, but to replace the filename through the new filename, to get "foundPath/newFileName".
I want to copy a directory recursively ( it again has directories) and the directory is on windows and is nfsmounted in vxWorks, i am using unix to develop the code for this, can any one suggest me how to copy the directories recursively. (7 Replies)
Dear Group,

bup-drecurse
bup-drecurse(1) General Commands Manual bup-drecurse(1)NAME
bup-drecurse - recursively list files in your filesystem
SYNOPSIS
bup drecurse [-x] [-q] [--exclude path] [--exclude-from filename] [--profile] <path>
DESCRIPTION
bup drecurse traverses files in the filesystem in a way similar to find(1). In most cases, you should use find(1) instead.
This program is useful mainly for testing the file traversal algorithm used in bup-index(1).
Note that filenames are returned in reverse alphabetical order, as in bup-index(1). This is important because you can't generate the hash
of a parent directory until you have generated the hashes of all its children. When listing files in reverse order, the parent directory
will come after its children, making this easy.
OPTIONS -x, --xdev, --one-file-system
don't cross filesystem boundaries.
-q, --quiet
don't print filenames as they are encountered. Useful when testing performance of the traversal algorithms.
--exclude=path
a path to exclude from the backup (can be used more than once)
--exclude-from=filename
a file that contains exclude paths (can be used more than once)
--profile
print profiling information upon completion. Useful when testing performance of the traversal algorithms.
EXAMPLE
bup drecurse -x /
SEE ALSO bup-index(1)BUP
Part of the bup(1) suite.
