    Default Dumping a file

    OK, I am creating a dump that prints out into a new file in hexadecimal format. I have written some code, but I am getting the wrong output. In the ActionListener (dump) button I am having trouble connecting a formatDump method which takes an int array and an int address as arguments. An then there is another method called hex2Str that has two arguments, one int that converts to hexadecimal and an int that determines the number of digits. How am I to connect both of these methods to print out into a new file using a button?
    import java.awt.Color;

    Your posted code does not compile. Either fix the compiler errors or post the full text of the error messages you need help fixing.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    I just compiled/ran this one and get the nullnullnull output. I realize that I am getting a null pointer, but I am supposed to be getting something like this:
    00000000 50 4b 03 04 14 00 08 00  08 00 37 62 4c 3c 00 08 PK........7b<..

    So I guess I am having issues with my formatDump method, it appears that I need to somehow call the method in the actionPerformed for the Dump button and I also need to call the hex2Str method in the same actionPerformed. The only problem, I don't think that I have these methods set up correctly. Can you please also look at these methods and let me know if I am on the right track. Thank you

    I get many compiler errors because of missing import statements.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Default Re: Dumping a file

    Have you looked at the variable that you are printing to the file?

    For testing change the program so everything is in the program with no need to read or write disk files. Use ByteArray streams so you can print them from the program and see the results immediately in the program.

    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
