只需包含此包：

java.nio.file

然后，您可以使用以下代码编写文件：

Path file = ...;
byte[] buf = ...;
Files.write(file, buf);

public class Program {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String text = "Hello world";
        BufferedWriter output = null;
        try {
            File file = new File("example.txt");
            output = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(file));
            output.write(text);
        } catch ( IOException e ) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
          if ( output != null ) {
            try {
                output.close();
            }catch (IOException e){
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
          }
        }
    }
}

这里有一个创建或覆盖文件的小示例程序。这是一个长版本，因此可以更容易理解。

import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.OutputStreamWriter;
import java.io.Writer;

public class writer {
    public void writing() {
        try {
            //Whatever the file path is.
            File statText = new File("E:/Java/Reference/bin/images/statsTest.txt");
            FileOutputStream is = new FileOutputStream(statText);
            OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(is);    
            Writer w = new BufferedWriter(osw);
            w.write("POTATO!!!");
            w.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            System.err.println("Problem writing to the file statsTest.txt");
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[]args) {
        writer write = new writer();
        write.writing();
    }
}

使用Google的Guava库，我们可以创建和写入文件容易地

package com.zetcode.writetofileex;

import com.google.common.io.Files;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

public class WriteToFileEx {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        String fileName = "fruits.txt";
        File file = new File(fileName);

        String content = "banana, orange, lemon, apple, plum";

        Files.write(content.getBytes(), file);
    }
}

该示例在项目根目录中创建一个新的fruits.txt文件。

最好的方法是使用Java7：Java7引入了一种处理文件系统的新方法，以及一个新的实用程序类—Files。使用Files类，我们还可以创建、移动、复制、删除文件和目录；它还可以用于读取和写入文件。

public void saveDataInFile(String data) throws IOException {
    Path path = Paths.get(fileName);
    byte[] strToBytes = data.getBytes();

    Files.write(path, strToBytes);
}

使用FileChannel写入如果您正在处理大型文件，FileChannel可以比标准IO更快。以下代码使用FileChannel将字符串写入文件：

public void saveDataInFile(String data) 
  throws IOException {
    RandomAccessFile stream = new RandomAccessFile(fileName, "rw");
    FileChannel channel = stream.getChannel();
    byte[] strBytes = data.getBytes();
    ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(strBytes.length);
    buffer.put(strBytes);
    buffer.flip();
    channel.write(buffer);
    stream.close();
    channel.close();
}

使用DataOutputStream写入

public void saveDataInFile(String data) throws IOException {
    FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(fileName);
    DataOutputStream outStream = new DataOutputStream(new BufferedOutputStream(fos));
    outStream.writeUTF(data);
    outStream.close();
}

使用FileOutputStream写入

现在让我们看看如何使用FileOutputStream将二进制数据写入文件。以下代码转换String int字节，并使用FileOutputStream将字节写入文件：

public void saveDataInFile(String data) throws IOException {
    FileOutputStream outputStream = new FileOutputStream(fileName);
    byte[] strToBytes = data.getBytes();
    outputStream.write(strToBytes);

    outputStream.close();
}

使用PrintWriter写入我们可以使用PrintWriter将格式化文本写入文件：

public void saveDataInFile() throws IOException {
    FileWriter fileWriter = new FileWriter(fileName);
    PrintWriter printWriter = new PrintWriter(fileWriter);
    printWriter.print("Some String");
    printWriter.printf("Product name is %s and its price is %d $", "iPhone", 1000);
    printWriter.close();
}

使用BufferedWriter写入：使用BufferedWriter将字符串写入新文件：

public void saveDataInFile(String data) throws IOException {
    BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fileName));
    writer.write(data);

    writer.close();
}

将字符串附加到现有文件：

public void saveDataInFile(String data) throws IOException {
    BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fileName, true));
    writer.append(' ');
    writer.append(data);

    writer.close();
}

在Java 7及以上版本中：

try (Writer writer = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(
              new FileOutputStream("filename.txt"), "utf-8"))) {
   writer.write("something");
}

但有一些有用的实用程序：

来自commons io的FileUtils.writeStringtoFile（..）来自番石榴的文件.write（..）

还要注意，您可以使用FileWriter，但它使用默认编码，这通常是一个坏主意-最好显式指定编码。

以下是Java 7之前的原始答案

Writer writer = null;

try {
    writer = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(
          new FileOutputStream("filename.txt"), "utf-8"));
    writer.write("Something");
} catch (IOException ex) {
    // Report
} finally {
   try {writer.close();} catch (Exception ex) {/*ignore*/}
}
