Java: PrintWriter object not detected -

i having trouble getting java recognize printwriter object 'out'. i'm not sure problem is.

public void storeinput(string filename) {     string foldername = "c:/temper/testy/";      file filetest = new file(foldername, filename);      system.out.println("enter text!!!!!");     string input = sc.nextline();      try {         printwriter out = new printwriter(                 new bufferedwriter(                 new filewriter(filetest)));     } catch (ioexception e) {         // todo auto-generated catch block         e.printstacktrace();     }       out.println(filetest);      out.close();   } 

declare outside of try

printwriter out = null; try {       out = new printwriter(                 new bufferedwriter(                 new filewriter(filetest)));     } catch (ioexception e) {         // todo auto-generated catch block         e.printstacktrace();     }
