Java variables across methods
- by NardCake
I'm making a basic text editor, and I have 2 methods the first one is triggered when a user click 'Open' and it prompts the user to pick a file and it opens the file fine. I just want to access the same file path which is in a variable in the method that is triggered when the user clicks save. My methods are public, Iv'e tried accessing it through a class, still no. Please help!
Code:
public void open(){
try{
//Open file
JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
fc.showOpenDialog(null);
File file = fc.getSelectedFile();
String haha = file.getPath();
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file.getPath()));
String line;
while((line = br.readLine()) != null){
text.append(line + "\n");
}
} catch (FileNotFoundException e){
e.printStackTrace();
}catch (IOException e){
}
}
public void save(){
try {
BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(file.filePath));
bw.write(text.getText());
bw.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
