How can i read a file into my program?

Question

Hi,
I have a text file that I want to read in to the program and for it to print on the screen. I have the following code but it doesn't seem to work as it doesn't print anything to the screen although i get no errors. If anyone could correct me or elp me that would be great. Thanks in advance.
public static void fileInput () throws IOException
final FileReader inputFile = new FileReader("Database.txt");
final BufferedReader inputBuffer = new BufferedReader(inputFile);
String line = inputBuffer.readLine();
}

Java programmers who think that variables are subject
to garbage collection should not go around calling
themselves professionals. It's objects that
are garbage collected.I agree,
have you had a look to the "varibales" that i'm "nulling" in my code?
What do you think, following "varibales" i declared, inherits from?
FileInputStream
DataInputStream
StringOf course all of them inherits from java.lang.object - So they are objects...
The only real flat "variable" i declared is a byte array and i agree that there's no need to "null" it. It's just "consuetude".
And additional:
To make the memory management complete there has to be a finalize() method at the end of your class to remove all of your OBJECTS from memory...
We're programming a real high performance WebApplication using CORBA, Servlets, AJAX and Database Connections which handles up to 5 Million
Datasets (using Hashes, Lists and so on) with just a simple click in this app and running at least 4 (up to unlimited spanned over different machines) Java Runtimes (CORBA Servers) which have different jobs AND will run (ok, should) 24h a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year.
In such an app (about 500.000 lines of code in the moment) you WILL recognize if you "null" an object and finalize it! If you won't do that they will "eat" your memory until you get an "OutOfMemory" error.
