#9058: System.IO.openTempFile does not scale -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: slyfox | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.10.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by rwbarton): * status: closed => new * resolution: fixed => Comment: This does now mean that the sequence of filenames is completely fixed for a given program (since we don't seed the random number generator) which has some obvious downsides. It would be nice to just use `mkstemps`, but maybe that is not portable enough? I wonder what other languages' standard libraries do here? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9058#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
