Hi, Everyone!

How can I record an array of strings into a binary file? If you could
provide detailed code I would highly appreciate it.

Thank You Very Much.

How can I record an array of strings into a binary file? If you could
provide detailed code I would highly appreciate it.

As a serialised object into an OutputObjectStream or as counted UTF-8
String after string, perhaps preceeded by a count, with
DataOutputStream. If all strings were the same length you might
consider using char[].

For details of how to do either see
