| This task sets a property to the name of a temporary file. |
| Unlike the Java1.2 method to create a temporary file, this task |
| does work on Java1.1. Also, it does not actually create the |
| temporary file, but it does guarantee that the file did not |
| exist when the task was executed. |
| <p> |
| Examples |
| <pre><tempfile property="temp.file" /></pre> |
| create a temporary file |
| <pre><tempfile property="temp.file" suffix=".xml" /></pre> |
| create a temporary file with the .xml suffix. |
| <pre><tempfile property="temp.file" destDir="build"/></pre> |
| create a temp file in the build subdir |
