Connector to Make Files

Q&A
1

Hi, I wanna add a Groovy conector to make a txt or log File with variables, constants that I can define in him. I tried the following simple but the file wasn’t generated:

String filename = “C:\execution-.log”;
// Fichero de lectura/escritura
File f = new File(filename);
// Escritura en el fichero
f << “KPI:” << " ";

any solution? Thanks

Hi.

You forgot to call the method “createNewFile()” in your script.
At the end of the script, you need to add :

f.createNewFile();

Here is a tutorial on how to create file in java :

Thanks yannicklombardi, and Can I write within the file after creating it that way? (f<< “bla bla bla”).
Thanks

I don’t know if f<<“bla bla bla” works. I don’t think this works in java.
You can use a bufferedWriter if you want to write in a file.
