TMPDIR
temporary directory path
Description
The TMPDIR constant holds the temporary
directory absolute path of a Scilab process. Each Scilab process
has its own temporary directory, created and referenced to
TMPDIR during Scilab startup. The
temporary directory is deleted when Scilab stops.
The temporary directories are created as subdirectories of the system temporary directory and named SCI_TMP_<unique> where <unique> is some number generated at Scilab startup for the name to be unique. Under GNU/Linux, UNIX and Mac OS X, directory access rights are limited to the Scilab user.
The TMPDIR constant cannot be altered during
Scilab execution. However, under GNU/Linux, UNIX and Mac OS X,
the system temporary directory (usually /tmp)
can be selected by altering the TMPDIR system
variable.
