I need to add text to beggining of text file via Java.
For example I have test.txt file with data:
Peter
John
Alice
I need to add(to top of file):
Jennifer
It should be:
Jennifer
Peter
John
Alice
I have part of code, but It append data to end of file, I need to make It that added text to top of file:
public static void irasymas(String irasymai){
try {
File file = new File("src/lt/test.txt");
if (!file.exists()) {
file.createNewFile();
}
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(file.getAbsoluteFile(), true);
BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(fw);
bw.write(irasymai+ "\r\n");
bw.close();
}
catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I have tried this, but this only deletes all data from file and not insert any text:
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
BufferedReader reader = null;
BufferedWriter writer = null;
ArrayList list = new ArrayList();
try {
reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("src/lt/test.txt"));
String tmp;
while ((tmp = reader.readLine()) != null)
list.add(tmp);
OUtil.closeReader(reader);
list.add(0, "Start Text");
list.add("End Text");
writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("src/lt/test.txt"));
for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++)
writer.write(list.get(i) + "\r\n");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
OUtil.closeReader(reader);
OUtil.closeWriter(writer);
}
}
Thank you for help.
File mFile = new File("src/lt/test.txt");
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(mFile);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fis);
String result = "";
String line = "";
while( (line = br.readLine()) != null){
result = result + line;
}
result = "Jennifer" + result;
mFile.delete();
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(mFile);
fos.write(result.getBytes());
fos.flush();
The idea is read it all, add the string in the front. Delete old file. Create the new file with eited String.
