  • tmp* files on OS X

    I've defined a single directory for my compiler output (*.d, *.o, *.elf, *.map etc). Over time I see a large number of files whose names begin with 'tmp'. Is this a bug? Can it be disabled?

    Silverback: ls tmp*

    tmpT2z7aY tmpgRuLoX tmptffH8U tmpyFE8nZ

    They seem to contain assembler output:

    .fpu fpv5-d16
    .eabi_attribute 20, 1

  • Hi,

    These are left-over output files from the compiler which should have been removed.
    The upcoming version will improve the handling, create non-random names and make sure they are removed.

    Best regards
    Johannes
