[Boost-users] boost file system library question

All,

I have been having some bad experiences with copying directories. I am
currently using system(xcopy /e source destination). Sometimes it works, and
sometimes it doesn't which landed me here. I am trying to get a simple test
working to emulate this with the boost libs. I have only been coding in C++
for two weeks. So I accept all suggestions and critisim.

Also if anyone had any insight into the security implications of the xcopy
system call vs. the boost filesystem lib that would be helpful.

Thanks in advance,
Dj
