Function Details

default()

Obtain the global default instance of TemporaryDirectory, creating it first if necessary. Failures are propagated to caller. Most callers are expected to use this function rather than instantiating TemporaryDirectory directly, unless they explicitly desdire to have their "own" directory for some reason.

This function is thread-safe.
