How do I read text file content line by line using commons-io?
The following example show how to use the commons-io library to read a text file line by line.
package org.kodejava.example.commons.io;
import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;
public class ReadFileToListSample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//
// Create a file object of sample.txt
//
File file = new File("sample.txt");
try {
//
// Here we read a file, sample.txt, using FileUtils
// class of commons-io. Using FileUtils.readLines()
// we can read file content line by line and return
// the result as a List of string.
//
List<String> contents = FileUtils.readLines(file);
//
// Iterate the result to print each line of the file.
//
for (String line : contents) {
System.out.println(line);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
