function drush_tempnam

6.x filesystem.inc drush_tempnam($pattern, $tmp_dir = NULL, $suffix = '')
5.x filesystem.inc drush_tempnam($pattern, $tmp_dir = NULL, $suffix = '')
3.x drush.inc drush_tempnam($pattern, $tmp_dir = NULL)
4.x drush.inc drush_tempnam($pattern, $tmp_dir = NULL)

Creates a temporary file, and registers it so that it will be deleted when drush exits. Whenever possible, drush_save_data_to_temp_file() should be used instead of this function.

Parameters

string suffix: Append this suffix to the filename. Use of this parameter is discouraged as it can break the guarantee of tempname(). See http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.tempnam.php#42052. Originally added to support Oracle driver.
