About the file I/O API

Adobe® Dreamweaver® CS5 includes a C shared library called DWfile. The DWfile lets authors of objects, commands, behaviors, data translators, floating panels, and Property inspectors read and write files on the local file system. The chapter describes the File I/O API and how to use it.

For general information on how C libraries interact with the JavaScript interpreter in Dreamweaver, see “C-Level Extensibility” in Extending Dreamweaver.
