\class ROOT::Experimental::Internal::RNTupleFileWriter
\ingroup NTuple
\brief Write RNTuple data blocks in a TFile or a bare file container
 
The writer can create a new TFile container for an RNTuple or add an RNTuple to an existing TFile.
Creating a single RNTuple in a new TFile container can be done with a C file stream without a TFile class.
Updating an existing TFile requires a proper TFile object.  Also, writing a remote file requires a proper TFile object.
A stand-alone version of RNTuple can remove the TFile based writer.
