- I've recently installed Borland C++ 4.5.1 and was wondering about the
- tmpnam() function.
-
- The online documentation (all I have) says that it returns a file name
- "which can be safely used as the name of a temporary file".
-
- What does this mean?
-
- Does tmpnam() search the current directory for the file name it's about to
- suggest?
