Move Directory

With this example we are going to demonstrate how to move a Directory. We are using the org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils class that provides general file manipulation utilities. In short, to move a Directory you should:

Let’s take a look at the code snippet that follows:  

package com.javacodegeeks.snippets.core;
 
import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
 
public class MoveDirectoryExample {
	
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    
    	// Set the source
    	String source = "C:/source";
  File sourceDir = new File(source);
 
  // Set the target
  String destination = "C:/target";
  File targetDir = new File(destination);
 
  try {
// Use moveDirectory method to move directory with all its contents
FileUtils.moveDirectory(sourceDir, targetDir);
  } catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
  }
    }
}

  
This was an example of how to move a Directory in Java.
