如果出于某种原因想要将创建和编写行为分开，那么Java中的touch等价物是

try {
   //create a file named "testfile.txt" in the current working directory
   File myFile = new File("testfile.txt");
   if ( myFile.createNewFile() ) {
      System.out.println("Success!");
   } else {
      System.out.println("Failure!");
   }
} catch ( IOException ioe ) { ioe.printStackTrace(); }

createNewFile（）执行存在性检查，并自动创建文件。例如，如果您希望在写入文件之前确保自己是文件的创建者，这可能很有用。

如果您已经有了要写入文件的内容（而不是动态生成的），那么Java7中作为本机I/O的一部分添加的java.nio.file.Files提供了实现目标的最简单、最有效的方法。

基本上，创建和写入文件只需一行，而且只需一个简单的方法调用！

以下示例创建并写入6个不同的文件，以展示如何使用它：

Charset utf8 = StandardCharsets.UTF_8;
List<String> lines = Arrays.asList("1st line", "2nd line");
byte[] data = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};

try {
    Files.write(Paths.get("file1.bin"), data);
    Files.write(Paths.get("file2.bin"), data,
            StandardOpenOption.CREATE, StandardOpenOption.APPEND);
    Files.write(Paths.get("file3.txt"), "content".getBytes());
    Files.write(Paths.get("file4.txt"), "content".getBytes(utf8));
    Files.write(Paths.get("file5.txt"), lines, utf8);
    Files.write(Paths.get("file6.txt"), lines, utf8,
            StandardOpenOption.CREATE, StandardOpenOption.APPEND);
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

使用输入和输出流读取和写入文件：

//Coded By Anurag Goel
//Reading And Writing Files
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;


public class WriteAFile {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        try {
            byte array [] = {'1','a','2','b','5'};
            OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream("test.txt");
            for(int x=0; x < array.length ; x++) {
                os.write( array[x] ); // Writes the bytes
            }
            os.close();

            InputStream is = new FileInputStream("test.txt");
            int size = is.available();

            for(int i=0; i< size; i++) {
                System.out.print((char)is.read() + " ");
            }
            is.close();
        } catch(IOException e) {
            System.out.print("Exception");
        }
    }
}

使用JFilechooser与客户一起阅读集合并保存到文件。

private void writeFile(){

    JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser(this.PATH);
    int retValue = fileChooser.showDialog(this, "Save File");

    if (retValue == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION){

        try (Writer fileWrite = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream(fileChooser.getSelectedFile())))){

            this.customers.forEach((c) ->{
                try{
                    fileWrite.append(c.toString()).append("\n");
                }
                catch (IOException ex){
                    ex.printStackTrace();
                }
            });
        }
        catch (IOException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

package fileoperations;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

public class SimpleFile {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        File file =new File("text.txt");
        file.createNewFile();
        System.out.println("File is created");
        FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(file);

        // Writes the content to the file
        writer.write("Enter the text that you want to write"); 
        writer.flush();
        writer.close();
        System.out.println("Data is entered into file");
    }
}

在Java8中，使用文件和路径，并使用trywithresources构造。

import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Paths;

public class WriteFile{
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        String file = "text.txt";
        System.out.println("Writing to file: " + file);
        // Files.newBufferedWriter() uses UTF-8 encoding by default
        try (BufferedWriter writer = Files.newBufferedWriter(Paths.get(file))) {
            writer.write("Java\n");
            writer.write("Python\n");
            writer.write("Clojure\n");
            writer.write("Scala\n");
            writer.write("JavaScript\n");
        } // the file will be automatically closed
    }
}
