Function glib::mkstemp_full

pub fn mkstemp_full(tmpl: impl AsRef<Path>, flags: i32, mode: i32) -> i32

Opens a temporary file. See the mkstemp() documentation on most UNIX-like systems.

The parameter is a string that should follow the rules for mkstemp() templates, i.e. contain the string “XXXXXX”. mkstemp_full() is slightly more flexible than mkstemp() in that the sequence does not have to occur at the very end of the template and you can pass a mode and additional flags. The X string will be modified to form the name of a file that didn’t exist. The string should be in the GLib file name encoding. Most importantly, on Windows it should be in UTF-8.

Returns

A file handle (as from open()) to the file opened for reading and writing. The file handle should be closed with close(). In case of errors, -1 is returned and errno will be set.
