Outputting an XML file with XMLStreamWriter

Our StAX code is now successfully writing out an XML string that is well formatted…and the next step is to write to a file instead of to a string.…I am working in a project called StAXToXMLFile and it has all the…code to create the XML document, packet with data and format the output.…In order to create the xmlString, I'm using the StringWriter class and…passing that into createXMLStreamWriter.…To write a file instead, use a FileWriter class.…

So I'm going to comment out this line of code that's outputting the StringWriter.…And I'll replace it with creating a FileWriter.…This is the standard Java FileWriter class.…I'll call it fw for FileWriter, and I'll instantiate it, wrapping the…constructor method around a new instance of the file class, and I'll…pass into that, the file name argument that was passed into this method.…So now the FileWriter knows how to create the file, and write to it.…

Then, I'll come down here, where I'm creating the XMLStreamWriter, and…instead of writing to the StringWriter, I'll write to the FileWriter.…
