Open a file, read everything from it. Write everything you read to new file.

Or simply?

#include <windows.h>

int main()
{
  CopyFile( "source", "destination", true );
}

#include <windows.h>

int main()

  CopyFile( "source", "destination", true );

Providing your developing on a windows machine and want unportable code.

Fair enough ;)

#include <fstream>

int main()
{
  std::ifstream in( "source", std::ios::in );
  std::ofstream out( "target", std::ios::out );
  out << in.rdbuf();
}

Shortest portable way I can think of.
