java 文件清空,Java - 如何清除文本文件而不删除它？

I am wondering what the best way to clear a file is. I know that java automatically creates a file with

f = new Formatter("jibberish.txt");

s = new Scanner("jibberish.txt");

if none already exists. But what if one exists and I want to clear it every time I run the program? That is what I am wondering: to say it again how do I clear a file that already exists to just be blank?

Here is what I was thinking:

public void clearFile(){

//go through and do this every time in order to delete previous crap

while(s.hasNext()){

f.format(" ");

}

}

解决方案

If you want to clear the file without deleting may be you can workaround this

public static void clearTheFile() {

FileWriter fwOb = new FileWriter("FileName", false);

PrintWriter pwOb = new PrintWriter(fwOb, false);

pwOb.flush();

pwOb.close();

fwOb.close();

}

Edit: It throws exception so need to catch the exceptions
