Entry Data becoming Misaligned when using Sync Mode to append record(s) to a file

[dbfAndroidProject]

When using the following method to append a record to a DBF file, the data becomes misaligned with spaces when added to the file, overflowing to other fields and completely destroying organization.

public void appendDetailArray(Object[] appendArray) { try { DBFWriter writer = new DBFWriter(new File (getExternalStoragePath() + "/sampleDBF.dbf")); writer.addRecord(appendArray); //Append record writer.close(); //Close } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); //Stack trace catch }`

Typically what happens is some fields (Strings, I think) have a couple of spaces added to them on the front, which in a 6 char limit field overflows. This somehow pushes data into the next field, causing it to be misaligned as such Intended: [999999],[00001],[12345],[C], etc Bugged: [ 9999],[990000],[1 1234],[E](decoder function errors out because it's not a valid char option for this use case) I've confirmed multiple times that the object array that I push to the writer.addRecord() method is valid and does not contain any spaces or characters that show up during the misalignment. Has anyone else run into this issue?

try (DBFWriter writer = new DBFWriter(new FileOutputStream(saveFilePath), Charset.forName(charsetName))){
    writer.setFields(fields);
    for (Object rowData: rowsData.subList(1, rowsData.size())) {
        writer.addRecord((Object[]) rowData);
    }
}

Problem solved, but I didn't use this method. It had to do with a corrupted DBF file, but I'd like to keep this here for others to reference in case it solves their issue. Issue Closed.
