------------------------------

             Summary: Default moveTo does not work for non-empty directories when it can't be done via renaming.
                 Key: VFS-481
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-481
             Project: Commons VFS
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0
            Reporter: Shon Vella


The default implementation of moveTo in AbstractFileObject has no chance of working for a non-empty folder in cases where it can't be done via a rename. This is because it calls it calls copyFrom with Selectors.SELECT_SELF which will not copy the descendants and doDelete, which is documented as only supposed to be called when "This file has no children, if a folder."
