How to create a new file having a name that is stored in a string

Hello friends i am new to java and i need your help .
I have a string which will take different values at run time. I want to create a file which has the same name as stored in the string . Can anyone help me?

The Java Almanac example I linked to uses createNewFile() - the API documentation is not particularly clear about exactly what happens if c:\some\value\assigned\at doesn't already exist. But you're only a small experiment away from finding out!
Another page gives examples of directory creation.
http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/java.io/CreateDir.html
Once (or if) the file is created using a File then, yes, that File is the name of the file: parent directories and all. If you create a FileReader based on the File it will read from the right place.

Whoa! Do you know what you're doing? Do you have permission to write on that URL? Or does the pathname parameter you passed on File is correct? How about let the server-side handle the creation of file for you by just requesting it? Do you know how to create a server-side Java program (e.i. Servlet)? Umm.. There's a Java tutorial for this for you to get started: [Reading from and Writing to a URLConnection|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/urls/readingWriting.html].

How to create a new file - help please.

hi there
i need to create a new file in my program, i did the following:
/*code--------------------
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(new FileOutputStream(new File("c:\\somedirectory\\outputfile.txt")));
out.println("product code:"+productCode);
out.println("product price:"+productPrice);
out.println("product description:"+productDes);
out.flush();
out.close();
the directory c:\somedirectory\ does not exist yet. i was hoping that when the new file is created, so was the directory. when i run it. the program could not find the path with following error message:
c:\somedirectory\outputfile.txt (The system cannot find the path specified)
can anyone of you experts point a rigth solution? thank you.

thanks
so the steps to create a new file in a new directory is as follow:
//create a file object with the directory path
File d = new File("c:\\xx\\");
d.mkdir();
//then create another file object with the path and the file name
File f = new File("c:\\xx\\abc.txt");
is this right?

How to create a new file (doc, ppt or xls) using the secondary click??

Is there any way to create a new file(text, doc, docx, ppt, pptx, xls or xlsx) using the the secondary click (on the desktop or any folder) just like creating a new folder using secondary click! Please do let me know!

No. You need the Office applications to create them or another application capable of creating those types of files or at least saving files in those formats.

How to create a new file with existing file's resource fork?

Hello,
I would like to create a new file that has the resource fork of an existing file. I had though of making a copy of the existing file, seek to the beginning of the copy and write the new data, but for large files, that creates the whole file even when not needed. I currently create the new file with [NSFileManager createFileAtPath: contents: attributes:], but attributes do not include resource fork items, like custom icons, color label, etc.
[NSURL resourceValuesForKeys] gives a common subset of resource data, like icons and color label, but that's about it. Is there some way to get the resource fork or a copy of the file without getting the whole file?
Thanks

What are you trying to do here? While resource forks might still be quasi-supported, you really shouldn't be thinking about them as such. Instead, think in terms of extended attributes. You can use the low-level xattr() functions to get some of that or you can use the new NSURL methods.

How to create a new session in JSP file

Usually a child IE window uses same session with parent window. Dose someone know how to create a new session when creating a new IE window by clicking a URL in parent window? The web page is writen by jsp file.

I am not sure of your question. Are you wanting to have 2 Session objects (one for the parent window and another for the child)?
A session is usually created once per client and is stored on the server the session id is carried around in a cookie or a URL rewrite so that everytime the user submits a page you will be able to store/access information.
// this will create a new session object if one doesn't already exist.
HttpServletRequest.getSession( true );
Hope this helps

How do I automatically create a new file at the beginning of a new day, otherwise I only want to append that days file?

In my robotics application I store my data using "Write to Spreadsheet.vi". I would like to append the file each time I run the program on any given day. On a NEW day I would automatically like to create a new file with a smiliar name and append that file for the day on which it is created. It's easy to do using the "Write to Measurement File. vi" but the text file created is vertical rather than horizontal, so I would like to use "Write to Spreadsheet". Any suggestions?
Also how to I include my VI as part of this question for others to see?
Thank you.

Does the file you are writing have a timestamp in it? If so you could read the timestamp from the last time it was written and see if the day has changed, handling the name of the file appropriately. The easiest way to record the timestamp is probably to write the timestamp as the number of seconds that have elapsed since 12:00 am on Firday January 1st 1904 in UT. The "Get Date/Time in Seconds" function will give you this value.

How to create a new user id in OID for Oracle Collab suite File System

Dear Friends,
I want to know how to create a new user id in the oracle internet directory where i can use that user for the new subscription of the oracle collabration suite file system..
Please do the needfull and thanks in advance...
With warm regards
R.Prasad

Hi!
The way you suggest should not be used.
A CS user will be created as a normal OID user and will receive the CS attributes in a different subtree later during the provisioning.
For creating CS users use oesuser and uniuser. Files provisioning will work in a different manner anyway.

How can I interactively create a New File in LabVIEW 2011?

I am trying to create a new binary file interactively in LabVIEW, but the File Path control only offers the ability to either type in the full path and file name (cumbersome for the user), or browse for an existing file. I want to open a "New File" dialog that will allow the user to browse to the target directory, then be able to enter the name of a non-existing file to save the data to.
The way I'm currently doing it is creating a TXT file using the Windows Explorer "New Text Document" pop-up, then changing the file extension to the new value...which is again, very cumbersome.
The only thing I've found online is that there used to be a "New File.VI" in an older version of LabVIEW apparently...but I can't seem to find it in 2011.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You can create a new file using the browse button.
Did your right click on the file path control and check the settings in the "Browse Options" menu?

How to create a new partion in my HP (Compaq LE1902x )PC that has already 4 primary partitions ?

How to create a new partion (to save my files & Folders) in my HP (Compaq LE1902x )PC that has already 4 primary partitions ? when something goes wrong along with OS(C) drive my all files are lost. so i want to create a new partition & dedicate it to my files & folders.

I would consider another problem. What if the hard drive (not the OS) fails. You'd lose all your data, all partitions. It seems better logic would be to copy your files and folders to either an external hard drive or USB thumb drive.
I would not use the internal backup program, but would manually copy the data. I also would not leave such device attached to the computer.
In my system I have a separate USB thumb drive that stored critical medical and legal documents. That way, I can travel with it, as needed. I also clone my primary desktop every 30-45 days. That way, if I get a failure, it's only that far back on lesser files.

How to create a new account and copy all settings?

I think my main user account is corrupted. So I want to create a new account and copy all of my settings, files etc..and more than likely piecemeal just incase my settings are what is corrupted. That way I can isolate the problem.
I don't plan to delete the main account until satisfied and I also have my Time Machine backup plus my SuperDuper backup.
I can/should be able to figure out how to create the new account, but I am very unclear on the best/easiest approach to copy in my iTunes files and settings, applications(is this even an issue), address book, email, etc? I should be able to find most everything underneath my home account folders but what else am I missing here? I don't want to find out the hard way.
Please share some advice or perhaps a link/FAQ on how to approach.
Thanks in advance.
