[New-bugs-announce] [issue6357] tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile does not accept the delete= parameter on Windows

[Daniel Stutzbach]

New submission from Daniel Stutzbach <daniel at stutzbachenterprises.com>:

Likely affects Python 2.7 and Python3.x as well, but I have not checked.

Under Windows:
>>> tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile('w', delete = False)
TypeError: NamedTemporaryFile() got an unexpected keyword argument 'delete'

Under Unix:
>>> tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile('w', delete=True)
<open file '<fdopen>', mode 'w' at 0x7ff199d0>
