Get the file, rename it and save with the new name. I don't know what's the use of dot, it could be real mess-up naming conversion.

A bit of File and String fiddling will do the job:

File file= new File(<your file name here>);
StringBuilder sb= new StringBuilder(file.getAbsoluteFile().toString());
int i= sb.lastIndexOf(file.getName());

sb.insert(i, '.');
System.out.println(sb.toString());

kind regards,
