Simple java help needed

[Anonymous No.6201265]

why is this not printing? I want it to print to a text file that already has stuff in it and not overwrite it, but it's not writing anything at all.
public void openFile(String filename) throws IOException
{
outputFile = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(filename, true));

}


public void writeToFile(Song song)
{
outputFile.println(song.getTitle());
outputFile.println(song.getArtist());
}


I'm calling the writeToFile method in a different class with the name of the Song object I want to use. It's supposed to print to a txt file but it isn't.

If the directory doesn't exist before you try to write the file, you need to make it. Remember to use outputFile.close().

Also >>>/g/ would probably be a little more helpful. It's a faster-moving board at least.

Thanks I figured it out now. I was stopping the program before it got to the close method lol.

Why? Programing is a science, there is programming advice in the sticky.

no, all they would do is make fun of him for using java and then proceed to circle-jerk about C and Lisp
