WriteFile Method

Write an Atom feed from the component.

Syntax

atom.writeFile(filename, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This method will write an Atom feed from the existing property values to Filename. The Atom feed will be pre-verified and if any missing required fields are encountered, the class fails with an error.

Example (Add an Item and Write)

AtomControl.EntryCount = 1
AtomControl.EntryContent(0) = "New Item Description"
AtomControl.EntryLinkHref(0) = "http://itemurl"
AtomControl.WriteFile(filename)
