(Manage temporary directory for TAP tests)
#include <tap/basic.h>
char *test_tmpdir();
void test_tmpdir_free(char *path);
test_tmpdir() creates a temporary directory for tests to use for transient files and returns the path to that directory. test_tmpdir_free() attempts to remove the directory and then frees the path string.
The directory created will be named tmp under the location named by the C_TAP_BUILD environment variable, or under the current directory if C_TAP_BUILD is not set.
test_tmpdir() returns the path to the temporary directory. It never returns NULL; if any problems occur in creating the directory, it calls bail() to exit the test instead. Note that the path may be relative if the environment variable C_TAP_BUILD is not set or is relative itself.
