Renaming Directory with same name different case

.net, c#, rename, vb.net

Solution

Well, you don't need to create a separate directory and move everything. Just rename the folder to something different and then back to the name you want:

var dir = new DirectoryInfo(@"F:\test");
dir.MoveTo(@"F:\test2");
dir.MoveTo(@"F:\TEST");

Problem

I am trying to rename a directory in c# to a name that is the same only with differing case. For example: f:\test to f:\TEST I have tried this code: ``` var directory = new DirectoryInfo("f:\\test"); directory.MoveTo("f:\\TEST"); ``` and I get a IOException - Source and destination path must be different. I have also tried Directory.Move() with the same result. How is this done? Do I have to create a separate temp directory, move the contained files from the original directory to the temp directory, and then delete the original, and rename the temp directory?
