Transferring a .txt file from 1 location to another

[dbashby]

I have the code for creating a folder in a set location

File f = new File("path in here");
          f.mkdir();

Now I am trying to work out the easiest way on the click of a second button to copy a .txt file from 1 location on my c drive to the folder that the previous code created, I have the path etc just cant seem to get the syntax right

Thanks in advance

What you have to do is,

1. Create two new file instance, one for the source and one for the destination.

File sou = new File(souFile);
File des = new File(desFile);

The InputStream instance for input and OutputStream for output file object.

InputStream inStr = new FileInputStream(sou);
OutputStream outStr = new FileOutputStream(des);

Finally create a byte buffer to read the file.

byte[] readBuf = new byte[2048]; // Depends on your file size
outStr.write(readBuf, 0, #of_bytes_reads);

Hope this is clear, If not let me know.
