    <p>I tried to create 3 empty files in my home directory, using this:</p> <pre><code> this.mainpath = System.getenv("HOME"+"/"); this.single = new File(mainpath + "sin.r"); this.complete = new File (mainpath + "com.r"); this.ward = new File (mainpath+"w.r"); </code></pre> <p>I was unter the impression that this would give me the files desired. However, if I search my home directory, or any other directory, for this files, none of them exists. What am I doing wrong?</p> <p>Edit: I just find out: I do get a file, but not in my home directory, but the path to it would be /home/myname/NetBeansProjects/myorojectname/nullsin.r.</p> <p>However, I specifically wanted to create the file in my home!</p> <p>Well, my code now reads:</p> <pre><code>this.mainpath = System.getenv("user.home"); this.mainpath = this.mainpath + "/"; this.single = new File(mainpath + "sin.r"); this.single.createNewFile(); System.out.println(this.single.getAbsolutePath()); this.complete = new File (mainpath + "comp.r"); this.complete.createNewFile(); this.ward = new File (mainpath+"w.r"); this.ward.createNewFile(); </code></pre> <p>The "success" of this, however, is that I get an IOException at the first createNeWFile(): File not found.</p> <p>as for my code how I tried to write sth into those file, there it is:</p> <pre><code> FileWriter writer1 = null; FileWriter writer2 = null; FileWriter writer3 = null; try { writer1 = new FileWriter(single); writer2 = new FileWriter(complete); writer3 = new FileWriter(ward); writer1.write("x = cbind(1,2,3)"); writer2.write("x = cbind(1,2,3)"); writer3.write("x = cbind(1,2,3)"); writer1.flush(); writer2.flush(); writer3.flush(); } catch (IOException ex) { System.out.println(ex.getStackTrace()); } finally { try { writer1.close(); writer2.close(); writer3.close(); } catch (IOException ex) { System.out.println(ex.getStackTrace()); } </code></pre>

    1. COYou were mistaken. Creating a `new File` doesn't create a physical file.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
