Great question!! I ran the executable on our NT machine (no one except
the Administrator has write permission for the root directory on any
partition) and got the following output:
raised ADA.IO_EXCEPTIONS.NAME_ERROR
Yuk! Perhaps there is a way to get the GNAT compiler to use the system
TEMP directory for temporary files?
Thanks for catching that problem in my code. I guess it's always better
to be safe than sorry, so if I ever use a temporary file, I won't assume
it will be created safely. Pardon me while I go slap my forehead and
say "duh".
Regards,
Jeff Cherry
