PSPP-BUG: [bug #33483] temporary directory

[Harry Thijssen]

Follow-up Comment #12, bug #33483 (project pspp):

As far as I understand:

#include <stdio.h>
#ifndef P_tmpdir
# define P_tmpdir "/tmp"
#endif

leaves P_tmpdir filled by stdio.h or defined it with "/tmp". In stdio.h it is
defined as "" actually "\". To me it looks as if it never tries to use /tmp. 

A hardcoded fallback to /tmp has indeed the same issues as /Windows/Temp. Even
more as /tmp is not defined by MSWindows.

The MSWindows syscall looks promising. Surprising that MS in manuals states 
that TMP is old and programs use the newer TEMP and in such a call TMP is
first checked. address@hidden&
