Creating a Tmporary file with random number ..

[npc]

Hi,

Actually I want to create a temporary file like temp.txt.<random number>,
because temp.txt file is already exists in that directory.

then I want to assign that temporary file to QFile,

how can I do that ?

Thanks for your replies.

Why don't you use QTemporaryFile ? http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/qtemporaryfile.html

Thaks for your reply,

Sorry I forgot to tell my Qt version, It is Qt 3.3 I cant find any classes like that.

I think you can use QUuid for this.

Thanks munna,

Is there any other way to do this apart from using UUID ?

hmmm....

I was not able to find any other method using Qt 3. Some expert here might know a better way. Wait for their replies

You can create a "pseudorandom" filename based on current time and process id and then create a file with that name.

Thank you wysota,

I used getpid() to get the process id, and used the same.
