How to put data in separate new columns csv using java?

Question

How can I go to new line in created .csv file. I can only go to next cell using ";"

File temp = new File("results11234.csv");
    FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(temp);

    for (int i = 0; i < dirs2.size(); i++) {
    try {
        writer.append(dirs.get(i)+ ';');

        writer.append((Integer.toString(dirs2.get(i)) + ';')); 

    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {

    }
    }
     writer.flush();
     writer.close();

You can add a line break:

writer.append("\n");   // for unix
writer.append("\r\n"); // for windows

If you want to be platform independent, you can do:

String lineSep = System.getProperty("line.separator");
...
writer.append(lineSep);

Or you use the BufferedWriter (the best way i think):

BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(temp));
...
writer.newLine();

I hope, it helps
