That would work except for three things:
A) I have to write/document/maintain the function.
B) There is no encoding parameter.
C) Garbage collection hints are missing.
Granted, if I wrote it myself, reasons B and C would be handled.
Mostly, I was just wanting to be lazy and use someone else's already
tested/debugged code. :-)
I've been really impressed with the Commons IO library. There are so
many methods/classes/interfaces/etc. that are "the way things ought to
be". The only lament I have about this library is that I was programming
in Java for 8 months before I heard about it.

Hello,
I'm looking for a function similar to the following:
org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.writeStringToFile(file, msg, encoding)
I need to append to an already existing file. Unfortunately, the
function call above overwrites the contents of the file.
Does a function with the functionality I need already exist somewhere
in the Jakarta Commons libraries?
How easy would it be to overload writeStringToFile() so that it has a
fourth parameter allowing appending to a file instead of overwriting it?
Sincerely,
Kenneth Love
