In Java, we can use the java.nio.charset.Charset
class to write text in different character encodings. If you need to write text in the ISO-8859-7 encoding, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Import the necessary classes
First, import the required classes to work with character encoding:
import java.nio.charset.Charset;
import java.nio.charset.StandardCharsets;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Path;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
Step 2: Write text in ISO-8859-7 encoding
Next, create a method to write text in the ISO-8859-7 encoding:
public static void writeInISO8859_7(String text) {
String charsetName = "ISO-8859-7";
Charset charset = Charset.forName(charsetName);
Path outputPath = Paths.get("output.txt");
try (BufferedWriter writer = Files.newBufferedWriter(outputPath, charset)) {
writer.write(text);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
In the above example, we define the character encoding as “ISO-8859-7” using the Charset.forName()
method. We create a Path
object for the output file, in this case, “output.txt”. We then use the Files.newBufferedWriter()
method to create a writer that uses the specified character encoding.
Finally, we pass the text to the writer using the write()
method.
Step 3: Calling the method
To write text in the ISO-8859-7 encoding, invoke the writeInISO8859_7()
method with the desired text as its parameter:
writeInISO8859_7("Γράφω κείμενο στην ISO-8859-7 κωδικοποίηση.");
In the above example, we are writing the Greek sentence “Γράφω κείμενο στην ISO-8859-7 κωδικοποίηση.” which translates to “Writing text in ISO-8859-7 encoding.”
Congratulations! You now know how to write text in the ISO-8859-7 encoding in Java.
