Hello,
While compiling, abi gave me the following warning:
/home/rms/cvs/abiword/abi/src/Linux_2.4.3_i386_GNOME/obj/libAbiUtil.a(ut_unixString.o):
In function `UT_tmpnam':
/home/rms/cvs/abiword/abi/src/af/util/unix/ut_unixString.cpp:51: the use of `tmpnam'
is dangerous, better use `mkstemp'
After a quick review of man mkstemp, I really believe we should not use tmpnam.
Just think of a link to the wrong place...
I only do not offer a patch, since I am not sure of what goes in that string there,
and mkstemp requires <<The last six characters of template must be XXXXXX and
these are replaced with a string that makes the filename unique.>> I thought that I'd
better place this warning to the list.
Hugs, rms
