I want to write a simple backup program. Its not finished yet, but i've encountered a problem: My class responsible for setting the right path wont execute the worker which will copy the file. I don't know why and yes - i already looked up on any helping site i know. Here is my filecopy h code:
#ifndef __FILECOPY_H_INCLUDED__
#define __FILECOPY_H_INCLUDED__
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include<ctime>
class filecopy
{
std::string dest_path;
std::string src_path;
public:
filecopy(std::string, std::string);
void filecopy_worker()
{
std::cout << "FILECOPY PROCESS STARTED" << std::endl;
std::ifstream source(src_path);
std::ofstream dest(dest_path);
dest << source.rdbuf();
source.close();
dest.close();
}
};
filecopy::filecopy(std::string a, std::string b)
{
dest_path = a;
src_path = b;
}
#endif
And here my main.cpp code:
#include<iostream>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include"filecopy.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
if(argc != 3)
{
std::cout << "USAGE: " << argv[0] << " <filesource>" << std::endl;
return 1;
}
else
{
filecopy target1(argv[2], argv[1]);
std::cout << "TARGET ASSIGNED" << std::endl;
std::cout << "EXECUTE FILEWORKER" << std::endl;
}
return 0;
}

It didn't execute the function because you never called it. Just add that function call
filecopy target1(argv[2], argv[1]);
target1.filecopy_worker();
