Method

voidrecursiveCopy(File copyFromDir, File copyToDir, boolean overwrite)
Will recursively copy the contents of copyFromDir to copyToDir creating any directories in the copyToDir that are necessary. 
try {
    copyToDir.mkdirs();
    File[] filesToCopy = copyFromDir.listFiles();
    File newDirectory;
    String slash = System.getProperty("file.separator");
    File newFile;
    for (int i = 0; i < filesToCopy.length; i++) {
        if (filesToCopy[i].isDirectory()) {
...
voidrecursiveCopy(File sourceFile, File targetLocation)
recursive Copy 
if (sourceFile.isFile()) {
    copyFile(sourceFile, new File(targetLocation, sourceFile.getName()));
    return;
File targetFolder = new File(targetLocation, sourceFile.getName());
targetFolder.mkdir();
File[] subFiles = sourceFile.listFiles();
for (int i = 0; i < subFiles.length; i++) {
...
voidrecursiveCopy(File src, File dest)
recursive Copy 
if (src.isDirectory()) {
    if (!dest.exists()) {
        dest.mkdirs();
    for (String file : src.list()) {
        File srcFile = new File(src, file);
        File destFile = new File(dest, file);
        recursiveCopy(srcFile, destFile);
...
voidrecursiveCopyDir(File source, File destination)
recursive Copy Dir 
if (source.isDirectory()) {
    if (!destination.exists()) {
        if (!destination.mkdirs()) {
            throw new IOException("The destination directory could not be created.");
    String files[] = source.list();
    for (String file : files) {
...
File[]recursiveCopyFile(File srcDir, File destDir)
Recursively copy all files from one directory to another. 
if (srcDir == null || destDir == null)
    throw new IllegalArgumentException();
File parentDir = destDir.getParentFile();
while (parentDir != null) {
    if (parentDir.equals(srcDir))
        return new File[] { srcDir };
    parentDir = parentDir.getParentFile();
return actualRecursiveCopyFile(srcDir, destDir);
