    try {       
        FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(outputFile);
        writer.append(stringToWrite);
        writer.flush();
        writer.close();
        log.debug("New File is generated ==>"+outputFile);
    } catch (Exception exp) {
        log.error("Exception in generateFile ", exp);
    }
