C# - Copy files and folders recursively from source to destination folder in c-sharp

In C#, there is no built in function to recursively bulk-copy all files and folders from source to destination folder. So this has to be done manually by the programmer. Being a lover of reusability feature of object oriented programming, I googled and stumbled on the code snippet below:

/// 

    /// Copy folder to another folder recursively
    /// 
    /// /// public static void CopyFolder(string sourceFolder, string destFolder)
    {
        if (!Directory.Exists(destFolder))
            Directory.CreateDirectory(destFolder);
        string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(sourceFolder);
        foreach (string file in files)
        {
            string name = Path.GetFileName(file);
            string dest = Path.Combine(destFolder, name);
            File.Copy(file, dest);
        }
        string[] folders = Directory.GetDirectories(sourceFolder);
        foreach (string folder in folders)
        {
            string name = Path.GetFileName(folder);
            string dest = Path.Combine(destFolder, name);
            CopyFolder(folder, dest);
        }
    }

Note that all files at the source folder have been copied to the destination folder. But folder and files within them have been copied using recursion - see the function of second foreach construct.

Shortcomings? Yes, no exception handling has been done in the snippet. However, the functionality is ok! Thanks to csharp411.com.
