Properties
| Property | Type | Access | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| absoluteURI | string | readonly | The full path name for the referenced file in URI notation. |
| alias | bool | readonly | If true, the object refers to a file system alias or shortcut. |
| created | Date | readonly | The creation date of the referenced file, or null if the object does not refer to a file on disk. |
| creator | string | readonly | In Mac OS, the file creator as a four-character string. In Windows or UNIX, value is "????". |
| displayName | string | readonly | The localized name of the referenced file, without the path specification. |
| encoding | string | r/w | Gets or sets the encoding for subsequent read/write operations. One of the encoding constants listed in the JavaScript Tools Guide. If the value is not recognized, uses the system default encoding.A special encoder, BINARY, is used to read binary files. It stores each byte of the file as one Unicode character regardless of any encoding. When writing, the lower byte of each Unicode character is treated as a single byte to write. |
| eof | bool | readonly | When true, a read attempt caused the current position to be at the end of the file, or the file is not open. |
| error | string | r/w | A string containing a message describing the most recent file system error. Typically set by the file system, but a script can set it. Setting this value clears any error message and resets the error bit for opened files. Contains the empty string if there is no error. |
| exists | bool | readonly | If true, this object refers to a file or file-system alias that actually exists in the file system. |
| fsName | string | readonly | The platform-specific full path name for the referenced file. |
| fullName | string | readonly | The full path name for the referenced file in URI notation. |
| hidden | bool | r/w | When true, the file is not shown in the platform-specific file browser. If the object references a file-system alias or shortcut, the flag is altered on the alias, not on the original file. |
| length | number | r/w | The size of the file in bytes. Can be set only for a file that is not open, in which case it truncates or pads the file with 0-bytes to the new length. |
| lineFeed | string | r/w | How line feed characters are written in the file system. One of the values "Windows", "Macintosh", or "Unix". |
| modified | Date | readonly | The date of the referenced file's last modification, or null if the object does not refer to a file on the disk. |
| name | string | readonly | The file name portion of the absolute URI for the referenced file, without the path specification. |
| parent | Folder | readonly | The Folder object for the folder that contains this file. |
| path | string | readonly | The path portion of the absolute URI for the referenced file, without the file name. |
| readonly | bool | r/w | When true, prevents the file from being altered or deleted. If the referenced file is a file-system alias or shortcut, the flag is altered on the alias, not on the original file. |
| relativeURI | string | readonly | The path name for the object in URI notation, relative to the current folder. |
| type | string | readonly | The file type as a four-character string. • In Mac OS, the Mac OS file type. • In Windows, "appl" for .EXE files, "shlb" for .DLL files and "TEXT" for any other file. |
Class
| Property | Type | Access | Description |

|---|---|---|
| path | string | A string containing the new path, absolute or relative to the current folder. |
| Example | file.changePath (".."); |
bool close ()
Closes this open file.
Returns true if the file was closed successfully, false if an I/O error occurred.
| Example | aFile.close() |
bool copy (target:
string | File)
Copies this object’s referenced file to the specified target location.
Resolves any aliases to find the source file. If a file exists at the target location, it is overwritten.
Returns true if the copy was successful.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| target | string | File | A string with the URI path to the target location, or a File object that references the target location. |
| Example | aFile.copy(target) |
void createAlias (path:
string)
Makes this file a file-system alias or shortcut to the specified file.
The referenced file for this object must not yet exist on disk. Returns true if the operation was successful.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| path | string | A string containing the path of the target file. |
bool execute ()
Executes or opens this file using the appropriate application, as if it had been double-clicked in a file browser.
You can use this method to run scripts, launch applications, and so on.Returns true immediately if the application launch was successful.
string getRelativeURI (basePath:
string)
Retrieves and returns the path for this file, relative to the specified base path, in URI notation.
If no base path is supplied, the URI is relative to the path of the current folder. Returns a string containing the relative URI.

|---|---|---|
| basePath | string | A base path in URI notation. |
| Example | aFile.getRelativeURI(basePath) |
bool open (mode:
string[, type:
string][, creator:
string])
Opens the referenced file for subsequent read/write operations. The method resolves any aliases to find the file.
Returns true if the file was opened successfully.The method attempts to detect the encoding of the open file. It reads a few bytes at the current location and tries to detect the Byte Order Mark character 0xFFFE. If found, the current position is advanced behind the detected character and the encoding property is set to one of the strings UCS-2BE, UCS-2LE, UCS4-BE, UCS-4LE, or UTF-8. If the marker character is not found, it checks for zero bytes at the current location and makes an assumption about one of the above formats (except UTF-8). If everything fails, the encoding property is set to the system encoding.
IMPORTANT: Be careful about opening a file more than once. The operating system usually permits you to do so, but if you start writing to the file using two different File objects, you can destroy your data.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| mode | string | The read-write mode, a single-character string. One of these characters: • r (read) Opens for reading. If the file does not exist or cannot be found, the call fails. • w (write) Opens a file for writing. If the file exists, its contents are destroyed. If the file does not exist, creates a new, empty file. • e (edit) Opens an existing file for reading and writing. • a (append) Opens an existing file for reading and writing, and moves the current position to the end of the file. |
| type | string | In Mac OS, the type of a newly created file, a 4-character string. Ignored in Windows and UNIX. (Optional) |
| creator | string | In Mac OS, the creator of a newly created file, a 4-character string. Ignored in Windows and UNIX. (Optional) |
| Example | aFile.open(mode, type, creator) |
File openDlg (prompt:
string[, filter:
