public class AXcopy

extends org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Copy

This is an extension of the standard ant copy task.

In addition to to standard ant task, it introduces the property "overwriteNever". Set this property to "true" if you want to keep existing files even if they are older than the source files. The default value is false, wich means that by default, this task behaves exactly like the ant copy task.
