Hello,
I am trying to create a temp file, however the file that is created
is still there after the program has completed.
Why is this so?
CoLe
#!/usr/bin/python
import os, tempfile, sys
import tempfile
# creates a random file (text=True is textfile, text=False is binary
file)
ext = '.txt'
pfx = 'tmp'
dir = '/home/argon/PR0001/source/emc2/bin'
filename = tempfile.mkstemp(suffix=ext, prefix=pfx, dir=dir,
text=True)[1]
print filename # eg. C:\Temp\tmpsnrfgk.txt
# test it ...
fout = open(filename, 'w')
fout.write("just a text file")
fout.close()
os.remove(filename)
