--- Comment #10 from Sebastian Sauer <sebsauer at kdab.com> ---
I think the reason could be that the temporary file is still open. Windows
cannot rename files that are opened at least afaik. The problem is that
KTemporaryFile/QTemporaryFile::close() does *NOT* close the
file/file-descriptor;
bool QTemporaryFileEngine::close()
{
// Don't close the file, just seek to the front.
seek(0);
setError(QFile::UnspecifiedError, QString());
return true;
}
What means that the temporary file will stay open as long as it's used making
it impossible to rename it during it's lifetime and when it's actually closed
it#s to late cause it's autoRemove'd means deleted :-/
Does that make sense?
