Description

A change to add an overloaded constructor ...

https://git.rtems.org/rtems-tools/commit/?id=420d7a13672991a1480d06ac02190f2976b9253b

does not do anything. The body of the constructor is empty.

Thinking about this I think the change is not right because the code depends on libiberty make temp call to find the temp directory and that is designed to crate safe temp files.

I am now wondering how the code was tested? The files registered are not known to the clean up handler that runs on exit.

This patch set up the interfaces used in the "covoar: Add option to create named objdumps" patch that I sent. We determined that patch was not needed given its hacked-togetherness along with future speedups that we had in mind which would make it obsolete anyway.

This patch should have been removed from the set to be committed, but I forgot to send out a notice to exclude it. Sorry for the confusion.

This commit should be reverted.
