Is there in eZ API a magic function to do that ?
for now I use tempnam('/tmp', ...)
=> I guess /tmp is not the appropriate place to put the file... Maybe eZSys::varDirectory() is *the* place to use?
=> a better function than tempnam ? maybe better to use eZClusterFileHandler?
Thanks for your help

Hi Jerome
It's actually up to you and what you need. If your temporary file needs to be used by several servers, then you indeed must use eZClusterFileHandler API.
If not, I'd better chosse the eZSys::varDirectory() approach you mention :). Don't forget to delete your temp file once you don't need it anymore !
