.close Method

Function:

Closes the file opened "on" a currently selected file number (selection is made through fd.filenum).

Syntax:

fd.close() as pl_fd_status_codes

Returns:

One of the following pl_fd_status_codes, also affects fd.laststatus:

0 — PL_FD_STATUS_OK: Completed successfully.

1 — PL_FD_STATUS_FAIL: Physical flash memory failure (fatal).

Closing Files, fd.flush


Details

Invoking this method also does the job performed by the fd.flush method (and this is why the 1 — PL_FD_STATUS_FAIL status code may be returned here).

Attempting to invoke this method "on" a file number that did not have any opened file associated with it generates no error.
