Question

I’m creating simple object serialization, and creation of BufferedOutputStream is raising an exception AccessDeniedException. Here is the code:

Path filePath = Paths.get("c:\\temp\\");
File xmlFile = new File("c:\\temp\\");
boolean success = xmlFile.mkdirs();
if (!success && ! xmlFile.exists() ) {
    // Directory creation failed
    System.out.println("Failed to create a file: " + filePath);
}

try (
    ObjectOutputStream objectOut = new ObjectOutputStream(
        new BufferedOutputStream(Files.newOutputStream(filePath, StandardOpenOption.WRITE)))){
    // Write three objects to the fi le
    objectOut.writeObject(solarSystem); // Write object

    System.out.println("Serialized: " + solarSystem);
} catch(IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

But directory is empty and if it doesn’t not exist, it’s created…

I’ll repeat my comment here: you seem to try to write to a directory not to a file. Try changing filePath to a file instead.
