RE: [ROOT] cint /tmp files errors

Hi,
I remember this was a problem with mkstemp in $ROOTSYS/cint/src/loadfile.c
in an older vesion of root/cint (3.05.01??).

On Linux use the command:

/usr/sbin/lsof | grep tmp
and you will find hundreds of tmp files with length 0
so you run out of file quota/process

in the latest versions of root/cint this problem is fixed

what do mean by version:
ROOT3.5.1   
do you mean
3.05.01? 

cheers
Otto
