Retrieve path of tmpfile()

Question

Quickie...

Is there a way to retrieve the path of a file created by tmpfile()?

Or do I need to do it myself with tempnam()?

Answer 1

It seems stream_get_meta_data() also works :

$tmpHandle = tmpfile();
$metaDatas = stream_get_meta_data($tmpHandle);
$tmpFilename = $metaDatas['uri'];
fclose($tmpHandle);

Answer 2

Like this

$path = array_search('uri', @array_flip(stream_get_meta_data($GLOBALS[mt_rand()]=tmpfile()))); 
file_put_contents($path, 'hello');
