This fixes compilation with wxUSE_FILE=0 as wxFileName::Mkdir() still uses these constants but their definitions were not available in this case. git-svn-id: https://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk@63456 c3d73ce0-8a6f-49c7-b76d-6d57e0e08775

@class wxTempFile
|
|
|
|
wxTempFile provides a relatively safe way to replace the contents of the
|
|
existing file. The name is explained by the fact that it may be also used as
|
|
just a temporary file if you don't replace the old file contents.
|
|
|
|
Usually, when a program replaces the contents of some file it first opens it for
|
|
writing, thus losing all of the old data and then starts recreating it.
|
|
This approach is not very safe because during the regeneration of the file bad
|
|
things may happen: the program may find that there is an internal error preventing
|
|
it from completing file generation, the user may interrupt it (especially if file
|
|
generation takes long time) and, finally, any other external interrupts (power
|
|
supply failure or a disk error) will leave you without either the original file
|
|
or the new one.
|
|
|
|
wxTempFile addresses this problem by creating a temporary file which is meant to
|
|
replace the original file - but only after it is fully written. So, if the user
|
|
interrupts the program during the file generation, the old file won't be lost.
|
|
Also, if the program discovers itself that it doesn't want to replace the old
|
|
file there is no problem - in fact, wxTempFile will @b not replace the old
|
|
file by default, you should explicitly call wxTempFile::Commit() to do it.
|
|
Calling wxTempFile::Discard() explicitly discards any modifications: it
|
|
closes and deletes the temporary file and leaves the original file unchanged.
|
|
If you call neither Commit() nor Discard(), the destructor will
|
|
call Discard() automatically.
|
|
|
|
To summarize: if you want to replace another file, create an instance of
|
|
wxTempFile passing the name of the file to be replaced to the constructor.
|
|
(You may also use default constructor and pass the file name to wxTempFile::Open.)
|
|
Then you can write to wxTempFile using wxFile-like functions and later call
|
|
wxTempFile::Commit() to replace the old file (and close this one) or call
|
|
wxTempFile::Discard() to cancel the modifications.

A wxFile performs raw file I/O. This is a very small class designed to

minimize the overhead of using it - in fact, there is hardly any overhead at

|
all, but using it brings you automatic error checking and hides differences

between platforms and compilers. wxFile also automatically closes the file in

wrapper around @c FILE structure.
