Libgdx FileHandle readString（）不起作用

Question

I have created a text file called useraccounts.txt. All i want to do is read the file using the filehandle class but I always get this exception

Exception in thread "LWJGL Application" com.badlogic.gdx.utils.GdxRuntimeException: Cannot open a stream to a directory: useraccounts.txt (Local)

Here is my code:

FileHande accountsFile = Gdx.files.local("useraccounts.txt");
String text = accountsFile.readString();

An explanation is appreciated!

Answer 1

are you sure it should be local() actually not internal? - you should notice where do you exactly keep your file.

You can read something more about FileHandle obtaining here:

Answer 2

After much frustration, I found out that I had made a folder the same name with the text file by mistake!! After deleting the folder all works fine, thank you for replying!
