nn::fs::TryCreateFile Function

Result TryCreateFile(
     const char * pathName,
     s64 size
);

	Name	Description
in	pathName	Path of the file to create.
in	size	Size of the file to create.

Returns the result of the operation.

Creates a file.

This function returns any error that occurs while it is creating the file.

Note: This function uses a large amount of buffer space on the stack because it converts the path name from a multibyte string into a wide string. Pay careful attention to the stack size.

If file creation fails, a garbage file may have been created. Call the TryDeleteFile function to delete it. If a garbage file has not been created, ResultNotFound is returned.

Which Result values need handling will differ, depending on the archive. For details, see Handling Errors During File and Directory Operations.

Note

After a file has been created with this function, if nothing has been written then in principle the process of reading will return nn::fs::ResultVerificationFailed.
