Java File IO

[emoos]

I am trying to write a list of numbers to Test.txt file which is located in the same directory as the java class file.

The program outputs the expected results to the Ide output window but when the file is checked after the program has terminated there is no data in the file - why is this?

Code :

public class IoTest {

final int MAX = 10;
int intValue;
String fileName = "Test.txt";

public IoTest () throws IOException {

Random rand = new Random();
File fileObj = new File(fileName);
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(fileObj,true);
BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(fw);
PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(bw);

for (int line = 0;line <= MAX; line++){

for (int num = 0;num <= MAX; num++){

intValue = rand.nextInt (90)+(10);
pw.print(intValue + " ");
pw.write(intValue + " ");
System.out.println(intValue + " ");
}

pw.println();
}
pw.flush ();
pw.close ();
bw.close ();
fw.close ();

System.out.println ("debugging, file created : "+ fileName);
}
}

If you want to write to a plain text file, the open it, write to it and close it,
using one plain buffered writer.

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;

public class IOTest {

  final int MAX = 10;
  int intValue;
  String fileName = "Test.txt";

  public IOTest() throws IOException {
    BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fileName));
    Random rand = new Random();

    for (int line = 0; line <= MAX; line++) {

      for (int num = 0; num <= MAX; num++) {

        intValue = rand.nextInt(90) + (10);
        bw.write(intValue + " ");
        System.out.println(intValue + " ");

      }

      bw.newLine();
    }
    bw.close();
    System.out.println("debugging, file created : " + fileName);
  }
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
      new IOTest();
    }
    catch (IOException ex) {
      ex.printStackTrace();
    }
  }
}

Solution - the Ide is Net Beans 5.0 Beta and the issue lied in
setting up the package within the project correctly.

Right click on the project name,properties,select run,
then setting the working directory to the source (scr) package
that is being used.
