Class TempFile
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.
Examples
<tempfile property="temp.file" />
create a temporary file
<tempfile property="temp.file" suffix=".xml" />
create a temporary file with the .xml suffix.
<tempfile property="temp.file" destDir="build"/>
create a temp file in the build subdir
void | execute() - Creates the temporary file.

void | setDestDir(File destDir) - Sets the destination directory.

|
void | setProperty(String property) - Sets the property you wish to assign the temporary file to.
