- * This task fills a proprerty with a temporary file

+ * This task sets a property to the name of a temporary file.
+ * Unlike the Java1.2 method to create a temporary file, this task
+ * does work on Java1.1. Also, it does not actually create the
+ * temporary file, but it does guarantee that the file did not
+ * exist when the task was executed.
+ * <p>
+ * Examples
+ * <pre><tempfile property="temp.file" /></pre>
+ * create a temporary file
+ * <pre><tempfile property="temp.file" suffix=".xml" /></pre>
+ * create a temporary file with the .xml suffix.
+ * <pre><tempfile property="temp.file" destDir="build"/></pre>
+ * create a temp file in the build subdir
