Synchronize, Import, Export functions
BCArchive provides a set of functions to synchronize the contents of existing archive with a non-encrypted folder:
Synchronize, Import from ... and Export to...
They are available through menu:
These functions work in different ways:
- Synchronize function compares the contents of the
archive and the folder and keeps the latest versions of all files.
It works silently and asks the user no questions. It adds files/folders to keep both locations
equal. It does not delete any files or folders.
- Import from... function modifies the archive to keep it equal to the specified folder.
If a file in archive is newer than the file in the folder, it asks the user whether to overwrite the file or not.
If a file exists in the archive, but does not exist in the folder, it asks whether to delete the file in archive
or not.
- Export to... function modifies the folder to keep it equal to the archive.
If a file in folder is newer than the file in the archive, it asks the user whether to overwrite the file or not.
If a file exists in the folder, but does not exist in the archive, it asks whether to delete the file in folder
or not.
