Detailed Description

A temporary file.

This is a helper file around the mkstemp API.

Once the temporary file is created, users can interact with it using an fstream. They can also get the path to the newly created temporary file.

When the instance of temp_file is destroyed, the underlying resources are de-allocated, the underlying temporary file is closed and removed.
