write()
Write a file to the disk.
public
static write(mixed $file, mixed $data[, null|mixed $chmod = null ]) : mixed
This function is heavily based on the way smarty process its own files. Is using a temporary file and then rename the file. We guess the file system will be smarter than us, avoiding a writing / reading while renaming the file. This method comes from CopixFile class of Copix framework.
Parameters
- $file : mixed
- $data : mixed
- $chmod : null|mixed = null
