Code Example

Reading a file by using BufferReader, You would done in few line of code, Here is the working example code.

import java.io.IOException;

import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.nio.file.Paths;

public class SampleTest {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Path path = null;
    try {
        path = Paths.get(new URI("file:///C:/java/example/test.txt"));
    } catch (URISyntaxException e) {
        System.out.println("Bad URI");
    }

    try (BufferedReader inputReader = Files.newBufferedReader(path, Charset.defaultCharset())) {
        String inputLine;
        while ((inputLine = inputReader.readLine()) != null) {
            System.out.println(inputLine);
        }
    } catch (IOException ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
