CFileList:Close

The Close method closes file searching for the CFileList object and frees memory. It does not delete the CFileList object.

Syntax

CFileList:Close()

Example

The following script creates a CFileList object from the file named sFileName. Then it iterates through the file list, returning each name from the list. Note that Next returns the next file name as a string, so you should not hide its return value by using it as a loop counter.

F = new_filelist( sFileName )	-- Create a new CFileList from the file sFileName
while n = 1, F:Count() do	-- step through the file list
str = F:Next()	-- save the next file name
Printf("%s\r\n", str )	-- list the file name
-- do something with the file name
n = n + 1
end
F:Close()	-- close the attached file list but retain object F
-- get the name of a different file list
F:Open( sFileName2 )	-- open the new file listwith the same CFileList object
-- do something else
