Temp dir creation
I'm a bit puzzled by the following behaviour (at least in the way I read http://docs.python.org/lib/module-tempfile.html ) > python Python 2.4 (#1, Mar 21 2005, 23:04:52) [GCC 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import tempfile >>> tfile = tempfile.mkstemp('','','.') >>> tfile (3, '/home/local/9qF7kf') OK, it works as expected, but... >>> tdir = tempfile.mkdtemp('','','.') >>> tdir './HFXmX2' I thought this should be '/home/local/HFXmX2'? According to the doc page above "mkdtemp() returns the absolute pathname of the new directory", which isn't what I get: >>> os.path.abspath(tdir) '/home/local/HFXmX2' Workaround I'm using: >>> import os >>> tdir = tempfile.mkdtemp('','',os.path.abspath('.')) >>> tdir '/home/local/5r8gFi' >>> Comments?
