open(*args)

public

If no block is given, this is a synonym for new().

If a block is given, it will be passed tempfile as an argument, and the tempfile will automatically be closed when the block terminates. In this case, open() returns nil.

# File lib/tempfile.rb, line 183
    def open(*args)
      tempfile = new(*args)

      if block_given?
        begin
          yield(tempfile)
        ensure
          tempfile.close
        end

        nil
      else
        tempfile
      end
    end
