Java I/O

Posted by Sanjay Ambardar on January 07, 2001 at 11:28 PM

I am writing the following programme to create a log file and write to it.

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

public class testOStream{

public static void main(String args[]){

try{
FileOutputStream fp = new FileOutputStream("Test.log",true);
ObjectOutputStream myStream = new ObjectOutputStream(fp);
String s = "Test";
myStream.writeObject(s);
myStream.flush();
myStream.close();
}catch(FileNotFoundException e){
System.out.println("Cannot be done");
}catch(IOException e){System.out.println("IOException");}
}

}

The output i am getting in the file Test.log is as follows
�� t Test

Can anyone please help me in why I am getting the junk characters in my log file besides the desired string!!
