I need to generate a unique temporary file with a .csv extension.
What I do right now is
string filepath = System.IO.Path.GetTempFileName().Replace(".tmp", ".csv");
However, this doesn’t guarantee that my .csv file will be unique.
I know the chances I ever got a collision are very low (especially if you consider that I don’t delete the .tmp files), but this code doesn’t looks good to me.
Of course I could manually generate random file names until I eventually find a unique one (which shouldn’t be a problem), but I’m curious to know if others have found a nice way to deal with this problem.
