Modern Fs RecordFile Append

Home › Filesystem › File Streams › RecordFile.Append

RecordFile.Append

Writes a variable after the last record and returns its record number.

Syntax

RecordFile.Append( r )                    '' FsResultI64

Notes

• Writes r as record Count( ) + 1 and returns that number.
• A short last record, one the file holds only part of, is overwritten.

Examples

#import "std/fs"
using fs

type Score field = 1
    player as long
    points as long
end type

dim as RecordFile( of Score ) rf
rf.Open( "scores.dat" )
dim as Score s
print rf.Append( s ).Value( ); rf.Append( s ).Value( )    '' 1 2
rf.Close( )
RemoveFile( "scores.dat" )
