Close a file
Source position: systemh.inc line 1186
procedure Close( |
var f: file |
); |
var t: Text |
); |
Close flushes the buffer of the file F and closes F. After a call to Close, data can no longer be read from or written to F. To reopen a file closed with Close, it isn't necessary to assign the file again. A call to Reset or Rewrite is sufficient.
Depending on the state of the {$I} switch, a runtime error can be generated if there is an error. In the {$I-} state, use IOResult to check for errors.
