Android Path is changed: Error Copy file from one folder to another

I want to copy the file from one location to another in my local system directories. There are two folders where one is source and another one is destination. I have added the correct directory path but in the log-cat it is taking different directory path and displaying Exception

                out = new FileOutputStream("D:\\temp5\\red.txt");
                byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
                int len;
                while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
                    out.write(buf, 0, len);

Answer 1

how can you be sure your path is correct? i assume you want to copy a file from your external sdcard to another dir on your external sdcard:

//Find the directory for the SD Card using the API
//*Don't* hardcode "/sdcard"
File sdcard = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory();

//Get the text file
File oldFile = new File(sdcard,"/temp/red.txt");

File newFile = new File(sdcard,"/temp5/red.txt");

now you can copy your file with this copy-function:

public void copy(File src, File dst) throws IOException {
    InputStream in = new FileInputStream(src);
    OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(dst);

    // Transfer bytes from in to out
    byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
    int len;
    while ((len = in.read(buf)) > 0) {
        out.write(buf, 0, len);
    }
    in.close();
    out.close();
}
