Secure temporary file: Difference between revisions

This example creates a temporary file, writes to the file, then reads from the file.

 

 

procedure Temp_File is

Get_Line(File => Temp, Item => Contents, Last => Length);

Put_Line(Contents(1..Length));

 

{{works with|BBC BASIC for Windows}}

The file is automatically deleted when closed.

IF file% = 0 ERROR 100, "Failed to open temp file"

PRINT #file%, "Hello world!"

IF hfile% = INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE THEN = 0

@hfile%(chan%) = hfile%

'''Output:'''

Hello world!

It is good practice to explicitly delete temp files immediately once they've been used.

Other attributes might be specified depending on the intended usage, but note that no file name is given. When the file is closed, its storage vanishes back to the file system.

{{works with|Linux}} On Unix systems, Julia calls <code>mkstemp</code> to securely open a temporary file. This is likely multi-thread safe, check your system documentation for verification. This code should also work on Windows, but I've not verified that.

msg = "Rosetta Code, Secure temporary file, implemented with Julia."

 

close(tio)

println("\"", msg, "\" written to ", fname)

Files written to <code>\tmp</code> persist for the login session, and are thus truly temporary. If the environment variable <code>TMPDIR</code> is set, the temporary file is created in this directory. In this case, the file may not be properly temporary.

ENV["TMPDIR"] = pwd()

(fname, tio) = mktemp()

close(tio)

println("\"", msg, "\" written to ", fname)

Will store the name of the file in the variable <code>filenameVar</code> and an open read-write channel on the file in the variable <code>chan</code>.

Note that because we're asking for the filename in the script, Tcl does not automatically clean the file. (There are cases where auto-cleaning would be really unwanted.) If we hadn't asked for it, the file would be automatically deleted (at a time that depends on platform constraints).
