I fully agree with your analysis and opinion. A compiler should not write temporary files in the source nor in the target directory. That's what $TMPDIR (or /tmp if unset) is made for. IMO it's worth filing a bug report. > Should csharpcomp copy the *.cs file before compilation, perhaps? IMO the compiler itself (cscc) should not do such things in the first place. Bruno
