2 @subsection @code{mkostemp}
5 Gnulib module: mkostemp
7 Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
10 This function is missing on many non-glibc platforms:
11 MacOS X 10.5, FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 3.8, AIX 5.1, HP-UX 11,
12 IRIX 6.5, OSF/1 5.1, Solaris 11 2010-11, Cygwin 1.7.5, mingw, Interix 3.5, BeOS.
15 Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
18 On platforms where @code{off_t} is a 32-bit type, @code{mkostemp} may not work
19 correctly to create files larger than 2 GB. The fix is to use the
20 @code{AC_SYS_LARGEFILE} macro.
23 The gnulib module @code{clean-temp} can create temporary files that will not
24 be left behind after signals such as SIGINT.
