_rmtmp

Removes temporary files.

Syntax

int _rmtmp( void );

Return value

_rmtmp returns the number of temporary files closed and deleted.

Remarks

The _rmtmp function cleans up all temporary files in the current directory. The function removes only those files created by tmpfile; use it only in the same directory in which the temporary files were created.

By default, this function's global state is scoped to the application. To change this behavior, see Global state in the CRT.
