tempfile.mkstem p problem? OK, got it.


Boy, do I feel dumb. And yet...

Well, the problem was that the permissions of the directory were
"drw-------" when it was called from the Perl script. I dunno,
I'm too tired to figure out why, some umask thing. Doing:

os.chmod(work_d ir, 0755)

fixes everything...

Cheers,

Hi all! I am using Python 2.3.1 on Win32 (NT, 2000). Whenever a file imports the standard tempfile module, Python 2.3.1 issues the following warning: C:\Python23\lib\fcntl.py:7: DeprecationWarning: the FCNTL module is Deprecated; please use fcntl DeprecationWarning).

Hi! Is there a need for the "@" in the filenames created with tempfile.mktemp()? I think it would be better to use only characters which are "shell save". At least with bash you need to quote the "@". Copy&past of the filename does not work.

Hey group, I have a command line tool that I want to be able to call from a Python script. The problem is that this tool only writes to a file. So my solution is to give the tool a temporary file to write to and then have Python read that file. I figure that's the safest way to deal with this sort of thing. (But I'm open to better methods). Here's my code so far, could anyone tell me the proper way to use

Tonight I discovered something odd in the __doc__ for tempfile as shipped with Python 2.4.4 and 2.5: it says: This module also provides some data items to the user: TMP_MAX - maximum number of names that will be tried before giving up. template - the default prefix for all temporary names. You may change this to control the default prefix.

Hi there. I'm trying to generate a brand new file with a unique name by using tempfile.mkstemp(). In conjunction I used os.fdopen() to get a wrapper around file properties (write & read methods, and so on...) but 'name' attribute does not contain the correct file name. Why? <fdopen> Moreover, I'd like to know if I'm doing fine. Does this approach avoid
