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) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
