I did the instruction above. It seems like the application could write in
/tmp directory. But I'm curious which /tmp directory that the application
use to create the file? Since I couldn't find the created file anywhere. Is
it by any chance located in /tmp of the running application? If it's the
case, Is there any other way to access the created file that has been
created by my application?
