Close method: File class

Syntax

Close()

Description

The Close method discards any changes that haven’t been written to the external file, disassociates the file object from the external file, releases all resources connected with the file object, and causes the file object to go out of scope.

You cannot use any methods or properties on the object after it is closed. You must get another file object (using the GetFile function) and instantiate another file object after you use Close.

Parameters

None.

Returns

None.

Example

&MYFILE.Open("somefile.txt", "W", %FilePath_Relative);
&MYFILE.WriteLine("Some text.");
&MYFILE.Close();
