@node tmpfile

@findex tmpfile

POSIX specification:@* @url{http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/tmpfile.html}

Gnulib module: tmpfile

Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@item
This function often fails for trivial reasons on some platforms:
mingw, MSVC 9.
@item
On platforms where @code{off_t} is a 32-bit type, @code{tmpfile} may not work
correctly to create files larger than 2 GB.  (Cf. @code{AC_SYS_LARGEFILE}.)
