From OpenEUO
Calling Pattern
Call
local f = sl.file(a,b)
later:
f.finalize()
Example Usage
local t = {[3.14] = 0.7071, [' una ']=1, test='Some "random" string.'}
local f = sl.file(getinstalldir()..'scripts/testwrite.dat', 'write')
f.tofile(t)
f.finalize()
f = nil
local g = sl.file(getinstalldir()..'scripts/testwrite.dat', 'read')
local v = g.readnext()
g = nil
print(sl.keyvalstr(v))
--> table keys:values = {
una :1,
test:Some "random" string.,
3.14:0.7071,
}
Description
The finalize method writes flushes the file buffer (if file was opened in 'write' mode) and closes the underlying file. The file object is no longer valid after this operation, except for reopen calls.
