	Forces pending disk writes to be executed. [[fileWrite]] doesn't directly write to the hard disk but places the data in a temporary buffer; only when there is enough data in the buffer it is actually written to disk. Call this function if you need the data written right now without closing the file. This is useful for log files that might want to be read while the resource is still executing. [[fileFlush]] can be called after each log entry is written. Without this, the file may appear empty or outdated to the user.		Forces pending disk writes to be executed.

			==Syntax==
			<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
			bool fileFlush ( file theFile )
			</syntaxhighlight>

			===Required Arguments===
			*'''theFile:''' The file handle of the file you wish to flush.

			===Returns===
			Returns ''true'' if succeeded, ''false'' in case of failure (e.g. the file handle is invalid).

			==Example==
			<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
			local fileHandle = fileCreate("test.txt")
			if fileHandle then
			fileWrite(fileHandle, "Line 1")
			fileFlush(fileHandle)
			-- ... further writing operations
			fileClose(fileHandle)
			end
			</syntaxhighlight>

			Note that [[fileClose]] automatically flushes the file.

New page

bool fileFlush ( file )

Flushes a file so that waiting disk writings are written immediately. Things written by fileWrite is often delayed until a certain buffer is full or the file is closed until they're actually written to the disk. Call this if you need the data written right now without closing the file.
