Write to a file doesn't work in java

Question

I am trying to put/save highscore in a file : highscore.txt

But it doesn't work for me. Anybody see why?

Code:

public void miseAJour(IModele modele) {

  if (modele.isFin()) {

    if (modele.aGagner()) {
      Writer writer = null;

      try {
        writer = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(
            new FileOutputStream("/data/highscore.txt"), "utf-8"));
        writer.write(modele.time());
      } catch (IOException ex) {
        // report
      } finally {
        try { writer.close(); } catch (Exception ex) { //ignore }
      }
    }
  }
}

Answer 1

• Firstly, you command a closing bracket
• Second, try adding .. before your path name.

• Also add an catch or a null check for the writer and/or model.time()

  public void miseAJour(IModele modele) { if (modele.isFin()) { if (modele.aGagner()) { Writer writer = null; try { writer = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter( new FileOutputStream("../data/highscore.txt"), "utf-8")); writer.write(modele.time()); } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println("Error: " + ex.getMessage()); } finally { try { writer.close(); } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println("Error: " + ex.getMessage()); } } } } }
