Hi,

It looks like libsqlite uses global variable 'sqlite_temp_directory'
for storing the path to temporary directory. It would be very useful,
if there was a PHP.ini entry named like: "sqlite.temp_directory" setting this
variable, since there are cases where user environment doesn't allow to
every user writting to /tmp, /usr/tmp, /var/tmp or to current directory,
or another temporary directory is used. In such cases, these users
usually get this warning:

<b>Warning</b>: sqlite_open(): unable to open a temporary database file
for storing temporary tables in <b>....

Thanks.

Yeah I think that's a good idea. The only thing I'm not sure about is if we
should unify tmp configuration for all extensions. My first instinct would
be yes but from looking at php.ini
;upload_tmp_dir =
;session.save_path = "/tmp"
soap.wsdl_cache_dir="/tmp"

People might want to put these things into different directories so maybe
the answer is no :)

Do you have a patch which implements this?
