X#
Write a string, a carriage-return character, and a linefeed character to an open file, specifying two strongly-typed arguments.

Namespace:  XSharp.Core
Assembly:  XSharp.Core (in XSharp.Core.dll) Version: 2.19
Syntax
 FUNCTION FWriteLine3(
	ptrHandle AS IntPtr,
	cBuffer AS STRING,
	dwBytes AS DWORD
) AS DWORD
Request Example View Source

Parameters

ptrHandle
Type: IntPtr
The handle of the file to write to.
cBuffer
Type: String
The string to write.
dwBytes
Type: DWord
The number of bytes in cBuffer to write, beginning at the current file pointer position.

Return Value

Type: DWord
The number of bytes written.
If the value returned is equal to dwBytes + 2, the operation was successful.
If the return value is less than dwBytes + 2 or 0, this means that the length of cBuffer was less than dwBytes, or the disk is full, or another error has occurred.
Remarks
This function is assumed to handle raw binary data and is not dependent upon the status of SetAnsi(). FWriteText() and FWrite4(), on the other hand, are dependent upon SetAnsi().
Examples
This example uses FWriteLine3() to write 5 bytes. The carriage-return/linefeed pair increase the return value by 2:
X#
1hF := FOpen2("c:\data\sales", FO_READWRITE)
2IF hF != F_ERROR
3    ? FWriteLine3(hF, "Line1", 5)        //  7
4ENDIF
