Temporary Files on Windows

+ +

The tmpfile() function on windows requires that all temporary files be +stored in the root folder. The antelope (yacc) tool in base was calling +tmpfile() and this was causing problems at sites where win32 systems have +remmotely mounted secure file systems. A wrapper function called "FILE * +epicsTempFile()" that creates a temporary file on WIN32 with a name epicsNNN +using one of the following paths was installed into libCom. It searches +starting with (1) below and stops when it finds a specified path that exists. +On POSIX systems, and systems that default to POSIX behavior, epicsTempFile() +simply calls tmpfile().
