Write to a file in Java - Sample Program

This sample Java program demonstrates how to write to a file in Java. For this, the following two classes FileWriter and BufferedWriter are used. This program can be used to write to any text file using a Java Program.
FileWriter

The FileWriter is a class used for writing character files. The constructors of this class assume that the default character encoding and the default byte-buffer size are acceptable. To specify these values yourself, construct an OutputStreamWriter on a FileOutputStream.

BufferedWriter

The BufferWriter class is used to write text to a character-output stream, buffering characters so as to provide for the efficient writing of single characters, arrays, and strings.

import java.io.*; class FileWrite { public static void main(String args[]) { try { // Create file FileWriter fstream = new FileWriter("out.txt"); BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fstream); out.write("Hello Java"); // Close the output stream out.close(); } catch (Exception e) {// Catch exception if any System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage()); } } }
