Java Program To Create New File

The below Java program creates new blank file named MyFirstFile.txt by passing  file name as argument to the constructor of File object. We must have to place file creation code in try block because it may throw IOException. We can check whether new file is created or not by using createNewFile() method of File object and place it in if...else condition.

import java.io.*;
class CreateFile
{
  
 public static void main(String[] args) 
 {
  
  try
  {
   /*Creates File MyFirstFile.txt in current Directory*/
   File f1=new File("MyFirstFile.txt"); 
   
   if(f1.createNewFile())
    System.out.println("File Created Successfuly!");
   else
    System.out.println("Fail to Create File!");
  
  }

  catch(IOException e)
  {

  }

 }
}
