Creating Temp Files Using Java

At times, you need to create temporary files to perform certain actions. The following code segment illustrates the same:

import java.io.*;public class CreateTempFile{   public static void main(String args[])   {      CreateTempFile createTempFile = new CreateTempFile();      createTempFile.proceed();   }      private void proceed()   {      try      {         File tempFile = File.createTempFile("FileNameStart",null);          //A new file with name FileNameStart.tmp will be created in the default Temp/tmp folder         System.out.println("Temp file created and location is " + tempFile.getCanonicalPath());      }catch(IOException ioe)      {         System.out.println("IOException: "+ioe);      }   }}
