Can anyone help me with this?

Try this code!

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.IOException;

public class Copy {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    File inputFile = new File("farrago.txt");
    File outputFile = new File("outagain.txt");

    FileReader in = new FileReader(inputFile);
    FileWriter out = new FileWriter(outputFile);
    int c;

    while ((c = in.read()) != -1)
      out.write(c);

    in.close();
    out.close();
  }
}

Copy a File

import java.io.*;

     public class jCOPY {
         public static void main(String args[]){
             try {
             jCOPY j = new jCOPY();
             j.CopyFile(new File(args[0]),new File(args[1]));
         }
             catch (Exception e) {
             e.printStackTrace();
         }
     }
    
         public void CopyFile(File in, File out) throws Exception {
         FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(in);
         FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(out);
         byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
         int i = 0;
             while((i=fis.read(buf))!=-1) {
             fos.write(buf, 0, i);
         }
         fis.close();
         fos.close();
     }
}

Java does not provide a standard method to copy a file. To implement copying you need to read all bytes from source file and write to destination. The read() method will return -1 when of is reached, otherwise it returns the number of bytes read.

   1.      public static void copy(File source, File destination) 
   2.         throws IOException 
   3.      { 
   4.         // Open file to be copied 
   5.         InputStream in = new FileInputStream(source); 
   6.       
   7.         // And where to copy it to 
   8.         OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(destination); 
   9.       
  10.         // Read bytes and write to destination until eof 
  11.       
  12.         byte[] buf = new byte[1024]; 
  13.         int len = 0; 
  14.         while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) 
  15.         { 
  16.            out.write(buf, 0, len); 
  17.         } 
  18.       
  19.         // close both streams 
  20.       
  21.
         in.close(); 
  22.
         out.close(); 
  23.
      }
