Using the method File#length()

Returns: The length, in bytes, of the file denoted by this abstract pathname, or 0L if the file does not exist. Some operating systems may return 0L for pathnames denoting system-dependent entities such as devices or pipes.

File out = new File("data\\output2.xml");
System.out.printf("file size: %d bytes%n", out.length());

With java 1.7 you can use the static method Files#size (note: Files)

Path path = Paths.get("data\\output2.xml");
System.out.printf("file size: %d bytes%n", Files.size(path));
