\section{\class{wxFile}}\label{wxfile}
A wxFile performs raw file I/O. Note that wxFile::Flush is not implemented on some Windows compilers
due to a missing fsync function, which reduces the usefulness of this class.
\wxheading{Derived from}
None.
\latexignore{\rtfignore{\wxheading{Members}}}
\membersection{wxFile::wxFile}\label{wxfileconstr}
\func{}{wxFile}{\void}
Default constructor.
\func{}{wxFile}{\param{const char*}{ filename}, \param{wxFile::OpenMode}{ mode = wxFile::read}}
Opens a file with the given mode.
\func{}{wxFile}{\param{int}{ fd}}
Opens a file with the given file descriptor, which has already been opened.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{filename}{The filename.}
\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}.}
\docparam{fd}{An existing file descriptor.}
\membersection{wxFile::\destruct{wxFile}}
\func{}{\destruct{wxFile}}{\void}
Destructor. This is not virtual, for efficiency.
\membersection{wxFile::Attach}\label{wxfileattach}
\func{void}{Attach}{\param{int}{ fd}}
Attaches an existing file descriptor to the 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}}
Creates a file for writing. If the file already exists, setting {\bf overwrite} to TRUE
will ensure it is overwritten.
\membersection{wxFile::Eof}\label{wxfileeof}
\constfunc{bool}{Eof}{\void}
Returns TRUE if the end of the file has been reached.
\membersection{wxFile::Exists}\label{wxfileexists}
\func{static bool}{Exists}{\param{const char*}{ filename}}
Returns TRUE if the file exists.
\membersection{wxFile::Flush}\label{wxfileflush}
\func{bool}{Flush}{\void}
Flushes the file descriptor. Not implemented for some Windows compilers.
\membersection{wxFile::IsOpened}\label{wxfileisopened}
\constfunc{bool}{IsOpened}{\void}
Returns TRUE if the file has been opened.
\membersection{wxFile::Length}\label{wxfilelength}
\constfunc{off\_t}{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}}
Opens the file, returning TRUE if successful.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{filename}{The filename.}
\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{off\_t}{Read}{\param{void*}{ buffer}, \param{off\_t}{ count}}
Reads the specified number of bytes into a buffer, returning the actual number read.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{buffer}{A buffer to receive the data.}
\docparam{count}{The number of bytes to read.}
\wxheading{Return value}
The number of bytes read, or the symbol {\bf ofsInvalid} (-1) if there was an error.
\membersection{wxFile::Seek}\label{wxfileseek}
\func{off\_t}{Seek}{\param{off\_t }{ofs}, \param{wxFile::SeekMode }{mode = wxFile::FromStart}}
Seeks to the specified position.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{ofs}{Offset to seek to.}
\docparam{mode}{One of {\bf wxFile::FromStart}, {\bf wxFile::FromEnd}, {\bf wxFile::FromCurrent}.}
\wxheading{Return value}
The actual offset position achieved, or ofsInvalid on failure.
\membersection{wxFile::SeekEnd}\label{wxfileseekend}
\func{off\_t}{SeekEnd}{\param{off\_t }{ofs = 0}}
Moves the file pointer to the specified number of bytes before the end of the file.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{ofs}{Number of bytes before the end of the file.}
\wxheading{Return value}
The actual offset position achieved, or ofsInvalid on failure.
\membersection{wxFile::Tell}\label{wxfiletell}
\constfunc{off\_t}{Tell}{\void}
Returns the current position.
\membersection{wxFile::Write}\label{wxfilewrite}
\func{bool}{Write}{\param{const void*}{ buffer}, \param{off\_t}{ count}}
Writes the specified number of bytes from a buffer.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{buffer}{A buffer containing the data.}
\docparam{count}{The number of bytes to write.}
\wxheading{Return value}
TRUE if the operation was successful.
