Hi,
In order to fix XWIKI-7748 and XWIKI-7749, we need a plan for deleting temporary file.
XWikiAttachmentContent uses File.deleteOnExit(), but in Sun's implementation,
deleteOnExit()
only deletes on a *clean* exit, in a crash it can't delete the files but it
doesn't tag them
so they can be deleted in the next run either. Since temp files are usually
pseudo-randomly
named, they are impossible to find and delete later.
I propose that we create a subdirectory, `java.io.tmpdir`/xwiki/ which will be removed on
application exit. If the jvm crashes, the files will be removed next time around. Then
alter
ApplicationContext.getTemporaryDirectory() to yield this directory.
WDYT?
