set_string_to_file

set_string_to_file($file,$str,$line,$add=true,$timeout=COMMAND_TIME); - set (change or add) the specified string in the file

The function accepts parameters as input:

  • $file – path to the file where the string should be set. It can be either absolute or relative (relative to the script folder).
  • $str – the string to set in the file
  • $line – the number of the specified line in the file (line numbering, as everywhere, starts from zero)
  • $add – the string will be added to the file (true) or replace the old string (false)
  • $timeout – the maximum time to perform this operation (in seconds), by default - 60 seconds, if the operation is not completed during this time, the script continues to run further.

    After testing, the function returns the result of its work to the script :
  • true – operation completed (boolean)
  • false – operation failed (boolean)

    PHP example: textfile->".basename(__FILE__)."
    "; $file = "test \ test_insert.txt"; $file_os->delete($file); //1 echo("1.Add lines to the beginning of the file file:

    "); for($i = 0; $i <5; $i ++) echo($textfile->set_string_to_file($file, "line #" + $i + " n", 0)."
    "); //2 echo("
    2.Replace the line at the beginning of file:

    "); echo($textfile->set_string_to_file($file, "line # 100 n", 0, false)."
    "); //show the result $app->shell_execute("", $file); //end echo "

    "; //Quit $app->quit(); ?>

    ") echo(textfile.set_string_to_file(file, "line # 100 ", 0, false),"
    ") # show the result app.shell_execute("", file) # end echo("
