[Bug 9970] New: OPA uses the process id/thread id to generate "random" temp filenames

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9970

Summary: OPA uses the process id/thread id to generate "random"
                    temp filenames
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.46.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-misc
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

But if there is no Wine program running in the background then we start a clean
server each time and these number are always the same. OPAS handles very badly
if there is a lot of temporary files from the same "namespace" already and
after killing the program five times (so that it cannot clean the files on
exit) it will refuse to start.

A workaround is to clean the C:\Windows\Temp or to keep a program running in
the background so that the pids are each time different. I'm also not sure if
the problem is in OPAS or in the Visual FoxPro runtime - the error 1410 that
appears is a MS defined error code (
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa976055(VS.71).aspx )

If OPAS generates a name but such a file already exists it converts the mtime
to a DOS date - it looks like it wants to check it. But even setting the mtime
to 1990 doesn't make it overwrite the old file.

So let's make the process and/or thread id randomness
act more like the one in Windows...?

I thought this is only because the Windows boot process is non-deterministic.
But it seems that PIDs and TIDs on Windows are random (e.g. there is no main
thread id == process id + 1).

Is this still an issue in current (1.1.20 or newer) wine?

No response in 650 days => abandoned. If this still an issue in current (1.4 or
newer) Wine, and you can provide the needed information, feel free to reopen.
