uniq-file - (files)

One of the common tasks in many applications is creating a unique file (of any kind, including temporary). uniq-file statement does that - it creates a new unique file of zero size, with <file name> being its fully qualified name, which is always within the file-storage. The file itself is created empty. If "temporary" clause is used, then the file created is a temporary-file. The file has no extension. You can rename it after it has been created to reflect its usage or purpose. All files created are setup with owner and group read/write only permissions.

The following creates an empty file with auto-generated name that will be stored in "mydoc" variable. String variable "mydoc" is defined in the statement. The string "some data" is written to a newly created file: uniq-file mydoc write-file mydoc from "some data" To create a temporary file: uniq-file temp_file temporary ... // use file named "temp_file" .. delete-file temp_file
