[SOLVED] Writing to a file

[porchrat]

I am trying to write to a file and I don't really know what I'm doing wrong here. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter (new FileWriter(foo));
for (int count = 0; count <= (listArray.length - 1); count++)
	    {
	    	writer.write(listArray[count]);
	    	writer.write("\n");
	    }

It is supposed to write each field of the array to the File foo, one at a time. Each needs to be on its own line (perhaps BufferedWriter.write() moves the cursor to the next line, but I doubt it, hence the "\n"). Can anyone explain why this isn't working?

It is really starting to annoy me because I'm pretty sure I'm doing something stupid here and I don't know what it is.

Nevermind I figured it out.

It was something stupid after all. Above that code mentioned in the previous post I was reading a file into that array using a BufferedReader wrapped around a FileReader and I had forgotten to close that Reader.

Thanks anyway everyone :) will mark as solved

Have you tried flush() and close() ?
