Move a directory in remote server to another location in the same remote server using jsch

I am using JSCH API to connect to remote server through sftp. I need to move a directory present in the remote server from location A to location B. It looks like the method channelsftp.put(src,dest) allows to move only a file and not the directory.

Can someone please explain me how to do this?

You can use the rename command, it would move the file or directory and delete it from the original place.

sftpChannel.rename(oldFile, newFile);

Don't use this method, if you want to keep the original directory/file.

Hope this helps.
