\membersection{Operations}
These methods allow to work with the file creation, access and modification
-times:
+times. Note that not all filesystems under all platforms implement these times
+in the same way. For example, the access time under Windows has a resolution of
+one day (so it is really the access date and not time). The access time may be
+updated when the file is executed or not depending on the platform.

-\func{void}{AssignTempFileName}{\param{const wxString\& }{prefix}}
+\func{void}{AssignTempFileName}{\param{const wxString\& }{prefix}, \param{wxFile *}{fileTemp = {\tt NULL}}}
The function calls \helpref{CreateTempFileName}{wxfilenamecreatetempfilename} to
create a temporary file and sets this object to the name of the file. If a

+\func{static wxString}{CreateTempFileName}{\param{const wxString\& }{prefix}, \param{wxFile *}{fileTemp = {\tt NULL}}}
Returns a temporary file name starting with the given {\it prefix}. If
the {\it prefix} is an absolute path, the temporary file is created in this
directory, otherwise it is created in the default system directory for the
temporary files or in the current directory.
-If the function succeeds, the temporary file is actually created (but not
-opened) as well. Under Unix, it will have read and write permissions for the
-owner only.
+If the function succeeds, the temporary file is actually created. If\rtfsp
+{\it fileTemp} is not {\tt NULL}, this file will be opened using the name of
+the temporary file. When possible, this is done in an atomic way ensuring that
+no race condition occurs between the temporary file name generation and opening
+it which could often lead to security compromise on the multiuser systems.
+If {\it fileTemp} is {\tt NULL}, the file is only created, but not opened.
+
+Under Unix, the temporary file will have read and write permissions for the
+owner only to minimize the security problems.

+Returns {\tt TRUE} if this object represents a directory, {\tt FALSE} otherwise
+(i.e. if it is a file). Note that this method doesn't test whether the
+directory or file really exists, you should use
+\helpref{DirExists}{wxfilenamedirexists} or
+\helpref{FileExists}{wxfilenamefileexists} for this.
