Constructor & Destructor Documentation

TFileText()

IMPORT_CTFileText()

Default constructor.

Member Functions Documentation

CheckForTerminator(TBool &)

TInt CheckForTerminator(TBool &anAnswer)[private]

Parameters

TBool & anAnswer

FillBuffer()

TInt FillBuffer()[private]

NextRecord()

voidNextRecord()[private]

Read(TDes &)

IMPORT_C TIntRead(TDes &aDes)

Reads single line text record from a Unicode file into the specified descriptor.

The read operation begins at the current file position, and ends when a line delimiter character is read.

If the maximum length of the descriptor is insufficient to hold the record, the function returns KErrTooBig and the descriptor is filled to its maximum length.

If Read() is called when the current position is the end of the file (that is, after the last line delimiter in the file), KErrEof is returned, and the length of the buffer is set to zero.

Parameters

TDes & aDesOn return, contains the single record read from the file. Any previous contents are overwritten.

Seek(TSeek)

IMPORT_C TIntSeek(TSeekaMode)

Seeks to start or end of file.

It is only necessary to call this function before using Read() because Write() always seeks to the end of the file before writing.

panic
FSCLIENT 5 if aMode is neither ESeekStart nor ESeekEnd.
TFileText::Read TFileText::Write

Parameters

TSeek aModeESeekStart to seek to the start of the file; ESeekEnd to seek to the end.

Set(RFile &)

IMPORT_C voidSet(RFile &aFile)

Sets the Unicode file to be read from, or written to.

This function must be called before Read(), Write() or Seek() can be used.

TFileText::Read TFileText::Write TFileText::Seek

Parameters

RFile & aFileThe file to be used. Must be open.

Write(const TDesC &)

IMPORT_C TIntWrite(const TDesC &aDes)

Writes the contents of a descriptor to the end of a Unicode file.

A line delimiter is appended to the descriptor, and the current file position is set to the new end of file.

If the descriptor contains one or more paragraph delimiters, Read() will treat the contents of the descriptor as more than one record.

TFileText::Read

Parameters

const TDesC & aDesThe descriptor content to be appended to the file.
