Save the contents into hard disk on click of Save As button in Swing

Question

Hi,
I have a JButton "Save As". On clicking the button, the contents in the JTextArea should be saved in the local hard disk by opening a Save As dialog box and allowing the user to save in any location.
Is it possible to do this? If so, please inform me how it could be done.

Answer 1

Hi,
Please find the code below.
try{
File f = new File("Out.txt");
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis); DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(bis); String stb = null;
JDialog w = null;
stb = new String();
stb = dis.readLine();
if(stb != null){
w = new JDialog();
final Container c = w.getContentPane();
c.setLayout(null);
w.setContentPane(c);
w.setResizable(true);
w.setTitle("Log Window");
w.setSize(330,500);
final JTextArea jt = new JTextArea();
JScrollPane jsp = new JScrollPane(jt);
jt.setLineWrap(true);
jt.setText("Records not available for the id's"+"\n"+stb);
jt.setBounds(10,10,285,500);
final JButton jbSave = new JButton("Save File As");
JPanel spacer = new JPanel();
spacer.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(50, 18));
spacer.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(50, 18));
JPanel jpButtons = new JPanel();
jpButtons.add(jbSave);
jpButtons.add(spacer);
jpButtons.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEtchedBorder());
JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane();
c.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
c.add(jt,BorderLayout.CENTER);
c.add(jpButtons, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
jbSave.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();
int userOption = fileChooser.showSaveDialog(null);
if(userOption == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
//*******************STATEMENTS TO BE ADDD****************** }
jt.getText()-----This is how I can get the contents from JTextArea.
But how I can save the contents. i.e on click of Save As button, Save dialog box opens, and I can choose the location and give the name. but if I go to the location I don't find the file....
Please guide me to finish this....
Thanks in Advance.....
