Create folder and print to text file from command

Question

For example you have a command where the second argument is a directory plus file name:

String fileName = "createF dir/text.txt";
String textToFile="apples, oranges";

How can I create "dir/text.txt", a folder called dir, a txtfile and write the contents of textToFile to it?

The issue is it is a command. And it is file name can be changed to another file name. I can't use FileWriter method. It gives no directory error.

If you're using java 7 or above you can try java.nio.file package. Example code:

try {
    String fileName = "createF dir/text.txt";
    String textToFile="apples, oranges";

    String directoryPath = fileName.substring(fileName.indexOf(" ")+1, fileName.lastIndexOf('/'));
    String filePath = fileName.substring(fileName.indexOf(" ")+1, fileName.length());
    Files.createDirectory(Paths.get(directoryPath));
    Files.write(Paths.get(filePath), textToFile.getBytes());
}
catch (IOException e){}
