newFile

fun newFile(filename: String, mode: String): <Error class: unknown class><IOChannel>

Open a file @filename as a #GIOChannel using mode @mode. This channel will be closed when the last reference to it is dropped, so there is no need to call g_io_channel_close() (though doing so will not cause problems, as long as no attempt is made to access the channel after it is closed).

Return

A #GIOChannel on success, null on failure.

Parameters

filename

A string containing the name of a file

mode

One of "r", "w", "a", "r+", "w+", "a+". These have the same meaning as in fopen()
