/* C programming idea: Handling temporary files like memory allocations (allocating -> creating empty file, using -> locking for R/W, freeing -> deleting). 20% AI, 80% human (the code is tested and reviewed) Warning: The current result is quick and dirty. Not for educational or production purposes. GCC/Clang/TCC: Compile with -DTEST to set macro TEST as defined, with -DDEBUG to enable debug mode To-Do: Add thread-safe versions of functions (use postfix `_r`) */ #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #if _POSIX_VERSION >= 200112L # include # include # define IS_POSIX 1 #else # define IS_POSIX 0 #endif #ifdef DEBUG # define LINE_FAIL(x) printf("failed on line %d\n", __LINE__ + x) #else # define LINE_FAIL(x) #endif #define RETREAT(s) do { \ perror(s);
