%description
This module provides a generic interface to implement a copy method between
[a local computer and a remote file system] or [a remote file system and
itself] or [local computer to local computer] or [various remote file
systems].

The supported (very basic) copy functionalities mimics the unix cp command
- copies SOURCE to DEST, or multiple SOURCE(s) to DIRECTORY.

This whole project arose when I needed to automate file transfers between a
locally mounted file system (be it just local files or samba) and a remote
Microsoft SharePoint server. Since at the time of writing (mid 2011), there
wasn't a way to locally mount SharePoint directories that's connected
through https, I'd decided to write connector modules for it. Half way down
the process, it occurred to me that this will not be the last time some
vendor provides a non-standard interface for their services, so I
reorganized this module to be adaptable to changes - as long as I can
establish some basic functions of single file transfer, I can plug this
module in and do more complex stuff such as copy entire directories.

This adaptability resulted in the semi complex model used to invoke a copy.
You basically need at least 2 objects for copy to work. You need this
module (CopyTree::VendorProof) to provide a base class to copy stuff with,
but you also need at least one more module to provide data connection
methods for retrieving a file, posting a file, listing a directory, and
doing some sort of file tests for each protocol (be it a protocol for local
file operations or a protocol for sharepoint operations). In other words,
you need an extra module per protocol, so if you want to copy from local to
sharepoint, you need to load CopyTree::VendorProof::LocalFileOp (which I
wrote) AND SharePoint::SOAPHandler (which I also wrote). You would add
sources and the destination of files or dirs that you wish to copy via
(multiple) $vendorproof_instance ->src ($path, $connector_instance) and a
single $vendorproof_instance ->dst($destinationpath,
$another_connector_instance). Once you've added all your sources, you would
then run $vendorproof_instance ->cp; which would complete the copy
operation as per your src, dst definitions.

The copy schemes are similar to unix' cp -rf ; i.e. copies SOURCE to DEST,
or multiple SOURCE(s) to DIRECTORY. Noting that:

* directory copies are recursive, and all copies are default overwrite file
names and directory names may contain spaces, and these spaces need not to
be escaped.

The primary use of this module is on a linux / unix system that needs to
interact with a remote system.
