_FClose( ) API Library Routine

See Also   Example

Terminates access to a file.

Syntax

int _FClose(FCHAN chan)
FCHAN chan;               /* File channel of file to close. */

Remarks

Any buffers that have been modified while the buffer is open are automatically flushed to disk. If the file has the TEMPORARY attribute, FClose( ) deletes the file. _FClose( ) returns 0 if the file is closed successfully, or  – 1 if the file isn't closed successfully.
