java.io.tempdir Problems
I hope this is Tomcat related. If not, please accept my apologies, and
give me direction. I have removed from my Tomcat 5 (Struts 1.2 using a
custom taglib) service the java.io.tempdir setting because when I use
the following code:
File file = new File(Classpath.WEB_INF +
"resource" + File.separator +
"content_type" + File.separator +
"ttf" + File.separator +
physicalName);
FileInputStream fontStream = new FileInputStream(file);
Font font = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT,fontStream);
font = font.deriveFont(attributes);
fontStream.close();
I get temp files of around 50 - 150 kilobytes each written to the temp
directory. I requested assistance on Tomcat User without an answer.
Anyway, I assume that there may be a concurrency issue of somekind. Is
that right? Anyone with any assistance out there?

It sounds like maybe there is some confusion between environment
variables and system properties.
java.io.tempdir is a system property which presumably means it can be
set on the Java command line using -Djava.io.tempdir="foo"
This is different then anything getenv() would return since those would
be environment variables. Some of which are reflected as differently
named system properties. For example, I think java.io.tempdir defaults
to the TEMP environment variable under Windows and perhaps TMP under
Unix or something like that. I'd have to drill into javadocs to be sure.

I don't know if this is helpful or not, Martin, but if you attempt
System.getenv("java.io.tempdir") [which is deprecated], you get as part
of the error message
"getenv no longer supported, use properties and -D instead:
java.io.tempdir". Is that helpful? Does the -D there mean as in
-Djava.io.tempdir?

Martin,
Perhaps I should add, Martin, that if I set the environment variables
for java.io.tempdir and -Djava.io.tempdir in the application but not in
Tomcat startup, I don't have the problem. I am a bit confused about
whether to use java.io.tempdir or -Djava.io.tempdir. Can you explain a
bit about that?

Martin,
First, thanks for responding.
Second, the entirety of the startup code setting my java.io.tempdir
system property is after this note, but the value of the property is
"%CATALINA_HOME%\temp. The value of javax.servlet.context.tempdir is
C:\crackwillow\work\Catalina\localhost\_ . Following the knowledge I
gleaned from your question and specifications, I reset things in a
plugin, and I now have the values at runtime of:
javax.servlet.context.tempdir = C:\crackwillow\work\Catalina\localhost\_
-Djava.io.tempdir = C:/crackwillow/temp
java.io.tempdir = C:/crackwillow/temp
Prior to doing this, my values for both -Djava.io.tempdir and
java.io.tempdir were null.
I have kept the value of the java.io.tempdir in my at
C:/crackwillow/temp. When I run the font program as previously
indicated (see above), I still get the tmp files that do not go away.
Their names are as follows: +~JF3174.tmp and they run consequtively.
What do you think is up?

Re: java.io.tempdir Problems
Posted by Martin Gainty <mg...@hotmail.com>.
Michael
createTempFile employs 3 steps algorithm to locate/create "tempDir"
1) Attempt to retrieve the value of "javax.servlet.context.tempdir" from the
ServletContext
2) If that's not found, attempt to retrieve the value of the init-parameter
"tempDir"
3) If that's not found, default to the system-wide temp directory specified
by the system property "java.io.tempdir"
A)what is the value of "javax.servlet.context.tempdir" from the
ServletContext?
B)what is the value of the init-parameter "tempDir"?

AW: java.io.tempdir Problems
Posted by "S. Dierkes" <sd...@mediaclockwork.de>.
This is probably not a Tomcat problem, I got the same behaviour without
Tomcat in a java application and also with a webapp in BEA. The temporary
files are created by java itself (or more precise by some font handling in
java.awt). I found this behaviour on a Windows machine independent from the
tempdir settings, i.e. if not explicitly set, some automatic detected temp
dir was chosen - depending of windows version, resp. environment variable
settings (check your TEMP, TMP settings and under XP there is some directory
under the user's directory - can't remember). BTW, your lucky with only 50
kb, depending of font these could also be also several MB. Since we had some
other problems with java.awt.font, e.g. in headless environments we wrote a
lot of wrappers for several functions, so we came around this problem a
really hard way. Some suggestions
1. okay these files are temp files, so should go away if you shutdown clean,
but from my observations this doesn't happen all the time, but setting
System.runFinalizersOnExit improved this behaviour at our first tests, but
of course this may introduce other problems.
2. our first solution was cleaning up the directory manually on startup of
application, may be you can think of a similiar solution - even on a server
application. From our observations, if you reuse the font objects there is
only one temp file per font, so after all it's not a real problem if you
gather some temp files (unless you have thousands of fonts) and clean them
up on each server start.

Betreff: java.io.tempdir Problems
I hope this is Tomcat related. If not, please accept my apologies, and
give me direction. I have removed from my Tomcat 5 (Struts 1.2 using a
custom taglib) service the java.io.tempdir setting because when I use
the following code:
File file = new File(Classpath.WEB_INF +
"resource" + File.separator +
"content_type" + File.separator +
"ttf" + File.separator +
physicalName);
FileInputStream fontStream = new FileInputStream(file);
Font font = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT,fontStream);
font = font.deriveFont(attributes);
fontStream.close();
I get temp files of around 50 - 150 kilobytes each written to the temp
directory. I requested assistance on Tomcat User without an answer.
Anyway, I assume that there may be a concurrency issue of somekind. Is
that right? Anyone with any assistance out there?
