Clib.fclose() Method

---

This method writes a file's data to disk and closes the file.

Syntax

Clib.fclose(filePointer)

Parameter	Description
filePointer	A file pointer as returned by Clib.fopen()

Returns

Zero if successful; otherwise, returns EOF.

Usage

This method flushes the file's buffers (that is, writes its data to disk) and closes the file. The file pointer ceases to be valid after this call.

Example

This example creates and writes to a text file and closes the file, testing for an error condition at the same time. If an error occurs, a message is displayed and the buffer is flushed.

function Test_Click ()
{
   var fp = Clib.fopen('c:\\temp000.txt', 'wt');
   Clib.fputs('abcdefg\nABCDEFG\n', fp);
   if (Clib.fclose(fp) != 0)
   {
      TheApplication().RaiseErrorText('Unable to close file.' +
         '\nContents are lost.');
   }
   else
      Clib.remove('c:\\temp000.txt');
}
