System.PosixCompat.Temp
Description
This module makes the operations exported by System.Posix.Temp
available on all platforms. On POSIX systems it re-exports operations from
System.Posix.Temp, on other platforms it emulates the operations as far
as possible.
Documentation
mkstemp :: String -> IO (FilePath, Handle) #
Make a unique filename and open it for reading/writing. The returned
FilePath is the (possibly relative) path of the created file, which is
padded with 6 random characters. The argument is the desired prefix of the
filepath of the temporary file to be created.
If you aren't using GHC or Hugs then this function simply wraps mktemp and so shouldn't be considered safe.
