Java print screen program


I am trying to use Robot in Java to make an image file of a print screen. So far I have:

 Robot robot = new Robot();
 Rectangle screenRect = new Rectangle(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize());
 BufferedImage capture = new Robot().createScreenCapture(screenRect);
 ImageIO.write(capture, "bmp", new File("printscreen.bmp"));

But I can't seem to get it to create the file.


Solution

  • s/printscreen.bmp/"printscreen.bmp"
