OSGetSystemTempDirectory on MacOS

I need a temporary file somewhere on my mac and tried to use a part of the TempFileStream class as posted by Andre Guirard (http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/bpmpblog.nsf/dx/tempfilestream-class)Works fine for all win clients, but on all 3 macs (OS 10.6.2) i get an error in loading dll…?

Subject: the lib name should be…

“libnotes.dylib”

Subject: Works fine :slight_smile: Thank you Andre!

Subject: Did you try Environ function

If you use lotusscript, did you try envrion function ?

I never tested it on a Mac, but this function will allow you to retrieve environment variable from the OS. The only thing you have to know is the name of the temporary directory on mac osx. :wink:

But as mac osx is “linux based”, you’ll probably find it by opening a terminal and use the “set” command.

Hope this helps

Subject: Environ doesn’t work on mac

Environ returns an empty string on mac…

The really great thing is that the TempFileStreamClass from Andre returns the notes temp dir :slight_smile: … so i would like to use this on mac, too…
