openFile(file)
Opens the given local file.
Smart Client: launches the default OS associated application to open an existing local file.
Web Client: the (server local) file will open inside the browser - if supported (sent using "Content-disposition: inline" HTTP header).
Parameters
JSFilefile the local file to open. The file should exist and be accessible.
Returns:Boolean success status of the open operation
Sample
var myPDF =plugins.file.createFile('my.pdf');myPDF.setBytes(data,true)plugins.file.openFile(myPDF);
Smart Client: launches the default OS associated application to open an existing local file.
Web Client: the (server local) file will open inside the browser - if supported (sent using "Content-disposition: inline" HTTP header).
Parameters
JSFilefile the local file to open. The file should exist and be accessible.
StringwebClientTarget Target frame or named dialog/window. For example "_self" to open in the same browser window, "_blank" for another browser window. By default "_blank" is used.
StringwebClientTargetOptions window options used when a new browser window is to be shown; see browser JS 'window.open(...)' documentation.
Returns:Boolean success status of the open operation
Sample
var myPDF =plugins.file.createFile('my.pdf');myPDF.setBytes(data,true)plugins.file.openFile(myPDF,"_self",null); // show in the same browser window
openFile(fileName, data, mimeType)
Opens the given data as a file.
Smart Client: writes the data to a temporary file, then launches the default OS associated application to open it.
Web Client: the data will open as a file inside the browser - if supported (sent using "Content-disposition: inline" HTTP header).
Parameters
StringfileName the name of the file that should open with the given data. Can be null (but in Smart Client null - so no extension - will probably make open fail).
StringmimeType can be left null, and is used for webclient only. Specify one of any valid mime types:

streamFile(file)
Stream the given file(path) to the browser with content-disposition:attachment
This will not load in the file fully into memory but only stream it right from disk.
This can be any filepath on the server, but only the simple file name is exposed as the content disposition header filename.
This will throw an exception if anything goes wrong, like the given file is not valid/found.
String the given file(path) to the browser you can provide the content disposition how this should be send (inline or as an attachment)
This will not load in the file fully into memory but only stream it right from disk.
This can be any filepath on the server, but only the simple file name is exposed.
This will throw an exception if anything goes wrong, like the given file is not valid/found.

This can be any filepath on the server, but only the simple file name is exposed.
This will throw an exception if anything goes wrong, like the given file is not valid/found.
Give the browser target if you want to open the file inside another tab, most usefull in 'inline' content disposition mode.
StringcontentDisposition can be 'inline' or 'attachment'
StringbrowserTarget _blank or a specific name to open this in a differnt tab (really only usefull in inline mode)

trackFileForDeletion(file)
If the client's solution is closed, the file given to this method wil be deleted.
This can be a remote or local file.
This can be used to have temp files within a client that will be cleaned up when the solution is closed.
So they live as long as the client has its solution open.

writeFile(file, data)
Writes the given file to disk.
If "file" is a JSFile or you are running in Smart Client, it writes data into a (local) binary file.

prompted by the browser to save the file (sent using "Content-disposition: attachment" HTTP header). If it is a JSFile instance
