Here is my Java code.
File file = new File(path);
StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
//Do something.
out.println(sw.toString()); //Works fine; prints.
try {
FileUtils.writeStringToFile(file, sw.toString(), "UTF-8");
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new RuntimeException( e );
}
I don't already have the file created, and neither is it creating it after the execution. How can I do this?
See File.createNewFile().
Atomically creates a new, empty file named by this abstract pathname if and only if a file with this name does not yet exist. ..
As mentioned by @JohnWatts in comments:
..both
PrintWriterand your code create the file, but pre-1.3FileUtils.writeStringToFiledoes not.
FileUtils (with v >= 1.3), then he is already having the file created if necessary, including parent dirs. So there is no need for File.createNewFile().
FileUtils API are you using? I am getting some down votes for suggesting a J2SE method that would seem to solve the stated problem.Don't use StringWriter, use PrintWriter instead:
PrintWriter w = new PrintWriter(file);
w.print(string);
w.flush();
w.close()
I checked the code and it works.
The only problem that I could think of is path value. Try with hardcoded path value. Because I doubt file is getting created and you are not able to find it.
