Special characters while writing file in linux env

[Mani Venkata Kanth]

Hi,

I have an application running in Linux environment. This modules reads the below string and writes in a new file.

XYZZZABDS.ÿ$ABDCJDDMDLGDMG

However, while writing using the below line, I am getting the out put as below.

XYZZZABDS.ÿ$ABDCJDDMDLGDMG

Due to this my application throws an exception.

Please suggest me if there is any turn around or suggestions to resolve this issue.

Instead of using FileWriter and FileReader, use FileOutputStream + OutputStreamWriter / FileInpuStream + InputStreamReader, supplying the same explicit encoding in both processes.
