Let's create a properties file. Create instance of class Properties.
Properties properties = new Properties();
Add properties you want.
properties.setProperty("project-name", "JavaVids");
Create a new writer.
FileWriter writer = new FileWriter("conf.properties");
Store properties to writer. You can also add a comment.
properties.store(writer, "Jiri Pinkas");
Close writer.
writer.close();
Add throws declaration to ignore exceptions. This is how you do it quick and dirty. To handle exceptions properly change code to this:
Properties properties = new Properties(); properties.setProperty("project-name", "JavaVids"); FileWriter writer = null; try { writer = new FileWriter("conf.properties"); properties.store(writer, "Jiri Pinkas"); } catch (IOException ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); } finally { if (writer != null) { try { writer.close(); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } }
