What?What is it, exactly, that you want to do? Do you want to write to the file you just read from? If so close the InputStream and open an OutputStream. Other Input to Output scenarios are likely to run analog to this one, so answer the question and maybe you can be helped.

You can't change an InputStream to an OutputStream. You need to close the FileInputStream, then open a FileOutputStream. If you simply wish to add to the end of the file, then you can (AFAIK) open in append mode. If you wish to "modify" the current contents of the file, then you need to write a new file, as you are reading the current file, making the modifications as you go, then close both Streams, remove the current file and rename the newfile to the original name.

no you can't change input stream into output stream. for this you first have to close the inputstream and then open the file into output stream

The problem is that the only way by which i can find out anything inside my package is by using MyClass.Class.getResourceasStream(String) which gives me an inputStream.Now i can't figure out that how will i be able to write any XMl file inside a particular pakcage.

Try

URL url = MyClass.class.getResource("whatever other file already exists");

File f = new File(url.toUri());

FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream (f.getParent() + File.separator + "fileName");

Should work as long as the package is not in a jarfile.
