refer content of one file into another file using java

Using a file operation in java, I can copy or append content of one file into another file; however, my situation is little bit different. I do not want to copy or append the contents of a file into another. I want to refer the content of one file into another.

I need something along the lines of transclusion which is working for me in Java. I need to be able to include or exclude content of a file whenever I want instead of appending or removing content manually each time using file operation.

By the way, my file is pure txt file. How can I perform this task in java?

I think the most elegant way to solve such a requirement is to have a look at a templating technology like Velocity or FreeMarker. Both should have native support for File inclusion.
