Scala File I/O

For file write operations, Scala directly uses the I/O classes in java (java.io.File):

Example

import java.io._

object Test {

def main(args: Array){

val writer =new PrintWriter(new File("test.txt"))

 writer.write("")

 writer.close()

}

}

Executing the above code will generate a test.txt file in your current directory, and the file content will be "":

$ scalac Test.scala $ scala Test $ cat test.txt
