How do I rename a file using Java?

java Add comments

Use the File classes renameTo() method. Remember to check the return value which indicates whether the renaming was successful.


// file to be renamed

File from = new File(renameFrom);
    
// What to rename it to

File to = new File(renameTo);

if (!from.renameTo(to))
{
   // Rename failed
}
