FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY top-level constant

int const FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY

A file that is being used for temporary storage. File systems avoid writing data back to mass storage if sufficient cache memory is available, because typically, an application deletes a temporary file after the handle is closed. In that scenario, the system can entirely avoid writing the data. Otherwise, the data is written after the handle is closed.

Implementation

const FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY = 0x100;
