FileOutput

Posted: Dec 17, 2003 7:47 AM

Hi, I am trying to output lines of data from one txt file to another but i want to print each line in reverse order. I am able to output the file in reverse order except that the lines do not output line after line, instead the output is in one long line across. Help, how can i fix this problem??

I think you are not writing a new line when you write the text in reverse order in your file. When you are reading your source file then maybe you are using readLine() method. This method doesn't read the line terminator. So, when you are writing it to new file you need to add a new line. If you are using a buffered writer then you can add a new line using its newLine() method after every line you write.

hey kishori,
I was using the readLine() method so i guess that was the problem. I'll try the newLine() method now. thanks for the info
