\wxheading{Constants}
wx/file.h defines the following constants:
\latexignore{\rtfignore{\wxheading{Members}}}
+
\membersection{wxFile::wxFile}\label{wxfilector}
\func{}{wxFile}{\void}
Default constructor.
-\func{}{wxFile}{\param{const char*}{ filename}, \param{wxFile::OpenMode}{ mode = wxFile::read}}
+\func{}{wxFile}{\param{const wxString\&}{ filename}, \param{wxFile::OpenMode}{ mode = wxFile::read}}
Opens a file with the given mode. As there is no way to return whether the
operation was successful or not from the constructor you should test the
\docparam{fd}{An existing file descriptor (see \helpref{Attach()}{wxfileattach} for the list of predefined descriptors)}
+
\membersection{wxFile::\destruct{wxFile}}\label{wxfiledtor}
\func{}{\destruct{wxFile}}{\void}
{\bf NB:} it is not virtual so you should not use wxFile polymorphically.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Access}\label{wxfileaccess}
-\func{static bool}{Access}{\param{const char *}{ name}, \param{OpenMode}{ mode}}
+\func{static bool}{Access}{\param{const wxString\&}{ name}, \param{OpenMode}{ mode}}
This function verifies if we may access the given file in specified mode. Only
values of wxFile::read or wxFile::write really make sense here.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Attach}\label{wxfileattach}
\func{void}{Attach}{\param{int}{ fd}}
The descriptor should be already opened and it will be closed by wxFile
object.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Close}\label{wxfileclose}
\func{void}{Close}{\void}
Closes the file.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Create}\label{wxfilecreate}
-\func{bool}{Create}{\param{const char*}{ filename}, \param{bool}{ overwrite = false}, \param{int }{access = wxS\_DEFAULT}}
+\func{bool}{Create}{\param{const wxString\&}{ filename}, \param{bool}{ overwrite = false}, \param{int }{access = wxS\_DEFAULT}}
Creates a file for writing. If the file already exists, setting {\bf overwrite} to true
will ensure it is overwritten.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Detach}\label{wxfiledetach}
\func{void}{Detach}{\void}
Get back a file descriptor from wxFile object - the caller is responsible for closing the file if this
descriptor is opened. \helpref{IsOpened()}{wxfileisopened} will return false after call to Detach().
+
\membersection{wxFile::fd}\label{wxfilefd}
\constfunc{int}{fd}{\void}
Returns the file descriptor associated with the file.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Eof}\label{wxfileeof}
\constfunc{bool}{Eof}{\void}
\helpref{Read}{wxfileread} repeatedly and tests its return condition instead
of using Eof() as this will not work for special files under Unix.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Exists}\label{wxfileexists}
-\func{static bool}{Exists}{\param{const char*}{ filename}}
+\func{static bool}{Exists}{\param{const wxString\&}{ filename}}
Returns true if the given name specifies an existing regular file (not a
directory or a link)
+
\membersection{wxFile::Flush}\label{wxfileflush}
\func{bool}{Flush}{\void}
due to a missing fsync function, which reduces the usefulness of this function
(it can still be called but it will do nothing on unsupported compilers).
+
\membersection{wxFile::GetKind}\label{wxfilegetfilekind}
\constfunc{wxFileKind}{GetKind}{\void}
\end{verbatim}
+
\membersection{wxFile::IsOpened}\label{wxfileisopened}
\constfunc{bool}{IsOpened}{\void}
Returns true if the file has been opened.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Length}\label{wxfilelength}
\constfunc{wxFileOffset}{Length}{\void}
Returns the length of the file.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Open}\label{wxfileopen}
-\func{bool}{Open}{\param{const char*}{ filename}, \param{wxFile::OpenMode}{ mode = wxFile::read}}
+\func{bool}{Open}{\param{const wxString\&}{ filename}, \param{wxFile::OpenMode}{ mode = wxFile::read}}
Opens the file, returning true if successful.
\docparam{mode}{The mode in which to open the file. May be one of {\bf wxFile::read}, {\bf wxFile::write} and {\bf wxFile::read\_write}.}
+
\membersection{wxFile::Read}\label{wxfileread}
\func{size\_t}{Read}{\param{void*}{ buffer}, \param{size\_t}{ count}}
The number of bytes read, or the symbol {\bf wxInvalidOffset} (-1) if there was an error.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Seek}\label{wxfileseek}
\func{wxFileOffset}{Seek}{\param{wxFileOffset }{ofs}, \param{wxSeekMode }{mode = wxFromStart}}
The actual offset position achieved, or wxInvalidOffset on failure.
+
\membersection{wxFile::SeekEnd}\label{wxfileseekend}
\func{wxFileOffset}{SeekEnd}{\param{wxFileOffset }{ofs = 0}}
-Moves the file pointer to the specified number of bytes before the end of the file.
+Moves the file pointer to the specified number of bytes relative to the end of
+the file. For example, \texttt{SeekEnd($-5$)} would position the pointer $5$
+bytes before the end.
\wxheading{Parameters}
The actual offset position achieved, or wxInvalidOffset on failure.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Tell}\label{wxfiletell}
\constfunc{wxFileOffset}{Tell}{\void}
Returns the current position or wxInvalidOffset if file is not opened or if another
error occurred.
+
\membersection{wxFile::Write}\label{wxfilewrite}
-\func{size\_t}{Write}{\param{const void*}{ buffer}, \param{wxFileOffset}{ count}}
+\func{size\_t}{Write}{\param{const void*}{ buffer}, \param{size\_t}{ count}}
Writes the specified number of bytes from a buffer.
the number of bytes actually written
+
\membersection{wxFile::Write}\label{wxfilewrites}
-\func{bool}{Write}{\param{const wxString\& }{s}, \param{wxMBConv\&}{ conv = wxConvUTF8}}
+\func{bool}{Write}{\param{const wxString\& }{s}, \param{const wxMBConv\&}{ conv = wxConvUTF8}}
Writes the contents of the string to the file, returns true on success.
