tmpnam_oss(3) Guardian Native C Library Calls Reference Manual
To use the tmpnam_oss() or tmpnam_guardian() functions, specify the
_TANDEM_SOURCE feature test macro.
RETURN VALUES
If the s parameter is a null pointer, the tmpnam( ) function places its result into an internal static
area and returns a pointer to that area. The next call to this function might modify the contents of
the area.
If the s parameter is not a null pointer, it is assumed to be the address of an array of at least the
number of bytes specified by L_tmpnam. L_tmpnam is a constant defined in the stdio.h header
file. The tmpnam( ) function places its results into that array and returns the value of the s
parameter.
