Java Bytearrayoutputstream

The FileWriter class inherits from OutputStreamWriter and is used for writing streams of characters to files. It has several constructors that allow creating FileWriter objects associated with File objects or file descriptors. Once created, FileWriter objects have methods like write() to write characters, strings, or portions of arrays to files. The example demonstrates creating a FileWriter, writing sample text to a file, then reading it back with a FileReader.

Writes a sing le character.

2 public void write(c har [] c , int offset, int len)


Writes a portion of an array of characters starting from offset and with a leng th of len.

3 public void write(String s, int offset, int len)


Write a portion of a String starting from offset and with a leng th of len.

file.createNewFile();
// creates a FileWriter Object
FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(file);
// Writes the content to the file
writer.write("This\n is\n an\n example\n");
writer.flush();
writer.close();

//Creates a FileReader Object


FileReader fr = new FileReader(file);
char [] a = new char[50];
fr.read(a); // reads the content to the array
for(char c : a)
System.out.print(c); //prints the characters one by one
fr.close();
}
}

T his would produce the following result:
