  - ### Method Detail

    - #### setFile

          public void setFile(java.lang.String aFromUri)

      Sets the file to be transferred. This can either be a remote file or a local file. Remote files take the form:

      user:password@host:/directory/path/file.example

      Files to transfer can also include a wildcard to include all files in a remote directory. For example:

      user:password@host:/directory/path/*

      Parameters:
        `aFromUri` - a string representing the file to transfer.

    - #### setTodir

          public void setTodir(java.lang.String aToUri)

      Sets the location where files will be transferred to. This can either be a remote directory or a local directory. Remote directories take the form of:

      user:password@host:/directory/path/

      This parameter is required.
      Parameters:
        `aToUri` - a string representing the target of the copy.

    - #### setLocalFile

          public void setLocalFile(java.lang.String aFromUri)

      Similar to `setFile` but explicitly states that the file is a local file. This is the only way to specify a local file with a @ character.
      Parameters:
        `aFromUri` - a string representing the source of the copy.
      Since:
        Ant 1.6.2

    - #### setRemoteFile

          public void setRemoteFile(java.lang.String aFromUri)

      Similar to `setFile` but explicitly states that the file is a remote file.
      Parameters:
        `aFromUri` - a string representing the source of the copy.
      Since:
        Ant 1.6.2

    - #### setCompressed

          public void setCompressed(boolean compressed)

      Sets flag to determine if compression should be used for the copy.
      Parameters:
        `compressed` - boolean
      Since:
        Ant 1.9.8

    - #### setLocalTodir

          public void setLocalTodir(java.lang.String aToUri)

      Similar to `setTodir` but explicitly states that the directory is a local. This is the only way to specify a local directory with a @ character.
      Parameters:
        `aToUri` - a string representing the target of the copy.
      Since:
        Ant 1.6.2

    - #### setPreservelastmodified

          public void setPreservelastmodified(boolean yesOrNo)

      Parameters:
        `yesOrNo` - boolean
      Since:
        Ant 1.8.0

    - #### setRemoteTodir

          public void setRemoteTodir(java.lang.String aToUri)

      Parameters:
        `aToUri` - a string representing the target of the copy.
      Since:
        Ant 1.6.2

    - #### setLocalTofile

          public void setLocalTofile(java.lang.String aToUri)
