Streams

The explanations in this article are pretty good...

http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Programming/PerfTuning/

and there's always the good 'ole sun tutorials ...

and then there's your new best friend... Google...

Having said that, I think I'd probably use a PrintWriter ... something like this ...

private static int writeUnicode_PrintWriter(String fileName) {

//Approach 4: PrintWriter - handles Unicode chars properly.

try {

FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(fileName);

OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(fos, "UTF8");

PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(osw);

pw.println("\uffff\u4321\u1234");

pw.close();

} catch (IOException e) {

System.err.println(e);

}

return(0);

}

and then of course there's the XML option, which (just maybe) made easier with apache's XmlBeans.

Good luck. Keith.
