[jira] [Created] (BEAM-4843) Incorrect docs on FileSystems.delete

Ryan Williams created BEAM-4843:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Incorrect docs on FileSystems.delete
                 Key: BEAM-4843
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-4843
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: sdk-java-core
    Affects Versions: 2.6.0
            Reporter: Ryan Williams
            Assignee: Ryan Williams


[The docs on {{FileSystems.delete}} say|https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/b5e8335d982ee69d9f788f65f27356cddd5293d1/sdks/java/core/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/sdk/io/FileSystems.java#L332-L333]:

bq. It is allowed but not recommended to delete directories recursively. Callers depends on {@link FileSystems} and uses {@code DeleteOptions}.

However, the function actually takes a {{MoveOptions...}} param, there's never been a {{DeleteOptions}} afaict, and there is no way to recursively delete a {{ResourceId}}.

The docs should be fixed, at a minimum; actually supporting recursive delete would also be nice.
