setcontents(aFile,getcontent());

String text[];
try{

URLConnection yc = yahoo.openConnection();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(

contents.append(System.getProperty("line.separator "));
}

Hi one198,
The error is clear. write method of BufferedWriter class does not accept a StringBuffer object. Instead try converting your StringBuffer object into a String object and sending it as below:
Code:
output.write(acontents.toString());

Hi guys
Thank you levent.Now there is no errors when i complie my program.But once i run it expected result wasnt there.It menas contents of web page does
not write into First.txt.
contents should be html tages like <html>,body>,etc.....
Do you think there are some wrong proceedure i following for develope this program?
Thank you

It looks normal. Do you get any exception, what is the content you are getting? Try writing acontents.toString() to the screen first. In these ways, you can localize the error and then fix it.

Try to trace it using some thing like:
System.out.print(acontents.toString()) - so you get direct idea what is getting entered in your method

Hey You just forgot to close the writer .
Here is the modified code
Code:
package javaapplication1;
import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.nio.channels.FileChannel;
import java.lang.String;
import java.nio.ByteBuffer;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
File aFile = new File("C:\\Java\\First1.text");
setcontents(aFile,getcontent());
}
static public StringBuffer getcontent() {
StringBuffer contents = new StringBuffer();
String text[];
try{
URL yahoo = new URL("http://www.yahoo.com");
URLConnection yc = yahoo.openConnection();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
yc.getInputStream()));
String line;
while (( line = in.readLine()) != null) {
contents.append(line);
contents.append(System.getProperty("line.separator "));
}
} catch(IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
return contents;
}
static public void setcontents(File afile,StringBuffer acontents) {
Writer output=null;
try{
System.out.println(acontents.toString());
output=new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(afile));
output.write(acontents.toString());
output.close();// This line I added
} catch(IOException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
I made some modifications to make it working in my machine dont look at that , Only one line I think is important. i.e "output.close()"
