QTemporaryDir sounds like a good idea. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of ???? ?????????? Sent: Mittwoch, 10. August 2011 17:43 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Qt5-feedback] QTemporaryDirectory
Seems to be good idea. Maybe name it QTemporaryDir instead like QDir? 10.08.2011, в 18:02, David Faure написал(а): Similar to QTemporaryFile, I'm thinking of creating a QTemporaryDirectory class, for these cases where apps need a temp dir (e.g. to extract a zip, or write files before zipping them, or for unittests that need many files, like those testing directory-copy-operations). Of course one could use QTemporaryFile to get a temp filename, let the destructor delete it, and then create it as a directory, but AFAIK this is a bad idea, it creates a time window for a symlink attack (e.g. the attacker could be notified of the file creation+deletion using inotify). So, would a merge request for QTemporaryDirectory be a good idea? -- David Faure, [email protected], http://www.davidfaure.fr Sponsored by Nokia to work on KDE, incl.
