Module Core_filename

module Core_filename: sig .. end

make_absolute ~dir file If file is relative, returns the path of the file file relative to directory dir. If file is absolute, then returns file.

val make_absolute : string -> dir:string -> string

val is_posix_valid : string -> bool

is_posix_valid f

val temp_file : ?temp_dir:string -> string -> string -> string

temp_file ?temp_dir_name prefix suffix

Returns the name of a fresh temporary file in the temporary directory. The base name of the temporary file is formed by concatenating prefix, then, if needed, a 6-digit hex number, then suffix. The temporary file is created empty, with permissions 0o600 (readable and writable only by the file owner). The file is guaranteed to be fresh, i.e. not already existing in the directory.

temp_dir : the directory in which to create the temporary file

val temp_dir : ?in_dir:string -> string -> string -> string

Same as temp_file but creates a temporary directory.

val open_temp_file : ?mode:Pervasives.open_flag list ->
       ?temp_dir:string -> string -> string -> string * Pervasives.out_channel

Same as Core_filename.temp_file, but returns both the name of a fresh temporary file, and an output channel opened (atomically) on this file. This function is more secure than temp_file: there is no risk that the temporary file will be modified (e.g. replaced by a symbolic link) before the program opens it. The optional argument mode is a list of additional flags to control the opening of the file. It can contain one or several of Open_append, Open_binary, and Open_text. The default is Open_text (open in text mode).

val temp_dir : ?in_dir:string -> string -> string -> string

Same as temp_file but creates a temporary directory.
