is it possible to change name of excel file created using java

I have created an excel file using Java but, now I want to give dynamic name to excel file rather than static name using Java. I am currently using POI library.

I have created excel using following code:

WritableWorkbook copy = Workbook.createWorkbook(new File("/sdcard/mattress.xls"));
WritableSheet sheet = copy.createSheet("First Sheet", 0);

Consider another excel file having list of names. So, I want to rename this file mattress.xls with different names fetched from another excel file within program. Suggest me with best possible way.

You can rename file by using the below code,

File sdcard = new File("File Directory Path");
File from = new File(sdcard,"from.txt");
File to = new File(sdcard,"to.txt");
from.renameTo(to);

The constructor for File takes a String that can be any valid filename.

So

 String myFile = getStringForMyLogic ();
 WritableWorkbook copy = Workbook.createWorkbook(new File(myFile));
