Java OutputStreamWriter Class

The OutputStreamWriter is a superclass of the FileWriter class and has constructors that enable the conversion of streams.

To create an OutputStreamWriter, we must first import the java.io.OutputStreamWriter package. Once we have imported the package, we can create the OutputStreamWriter as follows.

Syntax

import java.io.OutputStreamWriter;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;

FileOutputStream <fos_name> = new FileOutputStream("<file_name.txt>");
OutputStreamWriter <osr_name> = new OutputStreamWriter(<fos_name>);

Example

import java.io.OutputStreamWriter;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;

public class codevisionz {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        String data = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.";

        try {
            FileOutputStream file = new FileOutputStream("myFile.txt");
            OutputStreamWriter osr = new OutputStreamWriter(file);

            osr.write(data);

            osr.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            System.out.println("Error writing to file");
            System.out.println(e.toString());
        }
    }
}

Output

Content of myFile.txt: 
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
