OpenFile

Open an output file.

Library

module::publisher/template-v2.whlib

Syntax

PUBLIC MACRO OpenFile (INTEGER pagenum)

Description

OpenFile opens a new output file for the page with ID pagenum. All new output will be redirected to this file until
the CloseFile macro is called. You can nest up to 32 OpenFile macros, but make sure each file is closed using the
CloseFile macro. The OpenFile and CloseFile macros are antagonists, and must be used in that way. Nested OpenFile
macros can for example be used to create TOC pages easily, without having to create and update local record arrays
in which relevant DocObject are stored during template execution.

Parameters

pagenum		ID of the page for which an output page should be opened

Example

// Loop through all pages, open an output file for every page,

// print the docobjects, close the file.

RECORD ARRAY allpages := SELECT id,name FROM pages;

FOREVERY (RECORD thispage FROM allpages)

{

  OpenFile(thispage.id);

    PrintPageBody();

  CloseFile();

}
