Niall Pemberton resolved IO-141.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Mark,
Thanks for the patch Mark, but there are two issues with it. Firstly it only
resolves the recusion issue when copying to a directory directly below the
destination (i.e "child"), but not for deeper levels (i.e. grandchild or
below). Secondly its inconsistent IMO since it only partially copies the source
directory and should IMO be ignoring only directories or files created by the
copy.
I have applied an alternative solution to fix this which deals with the above
two issues
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=609147&view=rev:
> Infinite loop on FileUtils.copyDirectory when the destination directory is
> within the source directory

> When you attempt to copy a directory and the destination directory is inside
> the source directory an inifinite loop occurs in the copyDirectory causing
> Commons-IO to create a folder w/o stopping until its reaches OS limitation.
> This code will recreate the bug:
> FileUtils.copyDirectory(new File("C:\\temp\\test-io\\a\\."), new
> File("C:\\temp\\test-io\\a\\." + File.separator + new Date().getTime()));
> Make sure C:\temp\test-io\a exists
