How is this not a bug? I may have been wrong here. The problem is not present on Win32, but on Win64 the MS runtime does what the DMC runtime used to do - attempt to create the file in the drive root. And it's not a bug, it's working according to the documentation: > The tmpfile function creates a temporary file and returns a pointer to that > stream. The temporary file is created in the root directory. To create a > temporary file in a directory other than the root, use tmpnam or tempnam in > conjunction with fopen. Conclusion: this function is horrible and needs to be replaced with something better.

I don't think regular users can create files in the drive root on XP either: http://dump.thecybershadow.net/2d089ee536e35b4a8244f26f36be491c/0814.png -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---

Actually, it uses stdio.h's _P_tmpdir, which on Windows is "\\". Did I say that implementation is rather old? I also noticed that Windows 7 does not allow writing to the root directory. XP allowed it. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---

Anyway, has a bug report been done in DMC C bugzilla ? Else this one will stay open forever, I'm affraid. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---

The OS prevents to create the file, so tmpfile() throws an exception. I don't see how this can be considered a bug. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: ---
