[SOLVED] Where is the basePath for $files->tempDir()?

[asbjorn]

So I have been looking in the core files for a clue on how $files->tempDir() works and where it is located, without any luck. Can anyone help me with where this is? I have gotten the method to work and all that, and have also set the maxAge to a lot (in order to have time to look for the temporary directory). But I am at a loss. I just want to know a little bit more about this.

The answer is right there in the documentation you linked to ?.

It's a hidden folder...maybe that's why you couldn't find it?

Thanks, @kongondo, I found it now. I did not try the console at first.

I looked in /cache/WireTempDir/ though. Thinking I would see it since the default maxAge was 120 seconds, but it disappears after a second.
