MQL4参考 文件函数 FileWriteFloat

FileWriteFloat

The function writes the value of the float parameter to a bin-file, starting from the current position of the file pointer.

uint  FileWriteFloat(
   int    file_handle,     // File handle
   float  value            // Value to be written
   );

Parameters

file_handle

[in]  File descriptor returned by FileOpen().

value

[in] The value of float type.

Return Value

If successful the function returns the number of bytes written or 0 in case of error. If successful, the number of bytes written corresponds to the data type size (sizeof(float)=4). To obtain information about the error call the GetLastError() function. The file pointer is shifted by the same number of bytes.
