Re: java.io.tempdir Problems

Martin,
Perhaps I should add, Martin, that if I set the environment variables 
for java.io.tempdir and -Djava.io.tempdir in the application but not in 
Tomcat startup, I don't have the problem.  I am a bit confused about 
whether to use java.io.tempdir or -Djava.io.tempdir.  Can you explain a 
bit about that?

createTempFile employs 3 steps algorithm to locate/create "tempDir"
1) Attempt to retrieve the value of "javax.servlet.context.tempdir" from the
  ServletContext
2) If that's not found, attempt to retrieve the value of the init-parameter
  "tempDir"
3) If that's not found, default to the system-wide temp directory specified
  by the system property "java.io.tempdir"
A)what is the value of "javax.servlet.context.tempdir" from the
ServletContext?
B)what is the value of the init-parameter   "tempDir"?

Subject: java.io.tempdir Problems
 

I hope this is Tomcat related.  If not, please accept my apologies, and
give me direction.  I have removed from my Tomcat 5 (Struts 1.2 using a
custom taglib) service the java.io.tempdir setting because when I use
the following code:
    File file = new File(Classpath.WEB_INF +
                    "resource"        + File.separator +
                    "content_type"    + File.separator +
                    "ttf"             + File.separator +
                     physicalName);
    FileInputStream fontStream = new FileInputStream(file);
    Font font = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT,fontStream);
    font = font.deriveFont(attributes);
    fontStream.close();
I get temp files of around 50 - 150 kilobytes each written to the temp
directory.  I requested assistance on Tomcat User without an answer.
Anyway, I assume that there may be a concurrency issue of somekind.  Is
that right?  Anyone with any assistance out there?
