	/// of temporary files.
	/// A unique name for the temporary file is
	/// automatically chosen and the file is placed
	/// in the directory reserved for temporary
	/// files (see Path::temp()).
	/// Obtain the path by calling the path() method
	/// (inherited from File).
	///
	/// The TemporaryFile class does not actually
	/// create the file - this is up to the application.
	/// The class does, however, delete the temporary
	/// file - either in the destructor, or immediately
	/// before the application terminates.
