NAME
       tmpfile - create a file to hold data temporarily

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdio.h>

       FILE *tmpfile(void);

DESCRIPTION
       Tmpfile	creates a new file and opens it for output using binary update
       mode “wb+”.  There is no way to access the temporary file by name.  The
       file  is	 intended  to  be  used	 only  during  the  current  program's
       execution; it is automatically deleted upon program termination.

RETURN VALUE
       Tmpfile returns a pointer to the stream of the file  that  it  created.
       If the file cannot be created, tmpfile returns a null pointer.

       If it fails, errno is set to indicate the cause of the failure.

ERRORS
       Tmpfile will fail if one of the following conditions occur:

       [EMFILE]	      An attempt was made to open more than the maximum number
		      of file descriptors allowed in this process.

       [ENFILE]	      Too many files are currently open in the system.
