I'm getting a FileNotFoundException error...
I'm using scanner to read from a txt file, and I have the following:
Code:
Scanner scan = new Scanner(new File("grades.txt"));
and I'm getting this error:
unreported exception java.io.FileNotFoundException; must be caught or declared to be thrown.
I also tried putting grades.txt at c:/grades.txt and did new File("c:/grades.txt") but that still gave me the same error. Any ideas?
Re: I'm getting a FileNotFoundException error...
That just means you have to handle an exception, put that code in a try/catch block:
Code:
try
{ Scanner scan = new Scanner(new File("grades.txt"));
.........
}
catch (FileNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
or the alternative is to declare the method to throw an exception where that code is in:
Code:
void read() throws FileNotFoundException
{ Scanner scan = new Scanner(new File("grades.txt"));
.....
}
