Yeah,
That will create a file, rename it and delete it.
File read and write operations are somewhat more involved.
You'll definitely be better off wrapping up the file operations in a
cffunction block, but if you really do want to find out some more about it,
here's some java code to read the contents of a file:
public String readFile(File input) {
BufferedReader in = null;
try {
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(input));
String str;
while ((str = in.readLine()) != null) {
buffer.append(str + System.getProperty("line.separator"));
}
in.close();
return buffer.toString();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("Error! The file " + input + " could not be found.");
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("Error! An IO Exception occurred.");
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
} finally {
try {
in.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (NullPointerException e) {
// something wasn't initialized, just ignore this error
}
}
return null;
}
Converting that lot to CF should keep you busy for a while ;-)
