Write to Binary File (G Dataflow)

A Boolean specifying whether to include data size information at the beginning of the file when data is an array.

prepend controls only the top-level data size information. Arrays in clusters always include size information.

Default: True

Custom message in the title bar of the file dialog box that appears when you do not wire a value to the input path.

The file to which you want to write data.

This input can be a reference to a file or an absolute file path. In both cases, the node creates the specified file if it does not already exist. The node opens the specified file without requiring you to call Open/Create/Replace File first.

The data to write to the file.

This input accepts scalar data of any type, arrays of data of any type, and clusters of data of any type.

The endian form that the node uses to interpret the binary file. Byte order, or endian form, indicates whether integers are represented in memory from most-significant byte to least-significant byte or vice versa. When reading a binary file, you must interpret the data in the same byte order in which the data was written.

Default: big-endian, network order

Error conditions that occur before this node runs.

The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.

Standard Error Behavior

Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.

error in does not contain an error	error in contains an error
If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally. If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out.	If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out.

Default: No error

A reference to the file that this node uses.

A Boolean value that indicates whether the user cancelled the dialog box that appears if no input file was wired to this node.

Error information.
