Hello everyone,
I would like to use a temporary file for a project and I didn't find an existing method. I'm asking my self if it's a better idea to use ffi or OSSubProcess (or something already build for it) to build a method able to create this tmp file. Someone could help me please?
PS : Should it be a good idea to add this method directly in Pharo ?
Hi, For temporary files you can create a new file in memory via `FileSystem memory` so you do not pollute your file system and the file will be deleted later since the memory is volatile. `file := FileSystem memory / 'tmp.txt'. file ensureCreateFile. file writeStreamDo: [ :s | s nextPutAll: 'Hello World' ].` -- Cyril Ferlicot http://www.synectique.eu 165 Avenue Bretagne Lille 59000 France
