Infinite do while loop

Question

For some reason, my loop never ends, despite specifically assigning the value read by the scanner by the user. When user types 0, it goes on

public static void InseretToDB() throws IOException {
    IO init = new IO();
    Scanner scan = init.getScanner();
    BufferedWriter bWriter = init.getWriter();
    int j;

    do {
        System.out.println("Name");
        String name = scan.nextLine();
        bWriter.write(name);
        bWriter.write("      ");
        System.out.println("Ocuppation");
        String occupation = scan.nextLine();
        bWriter.write(occupation);
        bWriter.newLine();
        System.out.println(" Input 1 to continue, 0 to end");
        j = (int) Integer.parseInt(scan.nextLine());
    } while (j != 0);

}

Answer 1

The loop did end when I typed 0, but I changed the program to the following

Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
BufferedWriter bWriter = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(System.out));

Hope this helps,

Answer 2

Initalize the scanner as

 Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

Replace current code from

j = (int) Integer.parseInt(scan.nextLine()); 

To

try{
    j = scan.nextInt();
}catch(Exception e){
   j = -1;
}
