pm_tmpfile()

Updated: 22 July 2004

NAME

pm_tmpfile() - tempfile creation routine using TMPFILE

SYNOPSIS

#include <netpbm/pm.h>

FILE * pm_tmpfile(void);

EXAMPLE

This simple example creates a temporary file, writes "hello world" to it,
then reads back and prints those contents. #include <netpbm/pm.h>

FILE * myfile;

myfile = pm_tmpfile();

fprintf(myfile, "hello world0);

fseek(myfile, 0, SEEK_SET);

fread(buffer, sizeof(buffer), 1, myfile);

fprintf(STDOUT, "temp file contains ’%s’0, buffer);

fclose(myfile);

DESCRIPTION

This library function is part of Netpbm.

pm_tmpfile() creates and opens an unnamed temporary file. It is basically
the same thing as the standard C library tmpfile() function, except that it
uses the TMPFILE environment variable to decide where to create the
temporary file. If TMPFILE is not set or is set to something unusable (e.g.
too long), pm_tmpfile() falls back to the value of the standard C library
symbol P_tmpdir, just like tmpfile().

Unlike tmpfile(), pm_tmpfile() never returns NULL. If it fails, it issues a
message to Standard Error and aborts the program, like most libnetpbm
routines do.

HISTORY

pm_tmpfile() was introduced in Netpbm 10.20 (January 2004).
