I am having an problem with writing new lines to a file. I have tried
several different things, but to give you an idea here is the latest code I
tried:
String s = new String("test\n");
char[] buf = new char[s.length()];
s.getChars(0,s.length(),buf,0);
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(new
FileOutputStream("D:\\WWW\\Html\\User3.rpt"));
out.write(buf,0,s.length());
out.flush();
What is happening is that the \n is coming out as an unprintable character
rather than a newline. It works fine if sent to system.out rather than a
file.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Matt
