This function is a wrapper around tempfile
, which creates
temporary file names whose path contains the process ID of the calling
process. This avoids clashes between threads created by functions such as
mclapply
(in the ``parallel'' package), which can easily occur with
the standard tempfile
function.
threadSafeTempFile(pattern = "file")
A character vector of temporary file names. No files are actually created.
Character vector giving the initial part of each file name.
