| When running the following: import tempfile foo=tempfile.TemporaryFile type(foo) Linux returns: <type 'file'> Windows and Cygwin return: <type 'instance'> It should return the same across platforms, or return an undefined indication if not possible. | ||

| It's not a bug. The interface for both types are equal. Python doesn't guarantee that it uses the same types on every platform. It just guarantees that the behavior of the objects are the same on both platforms. Please study tempfile.py for detailed information. | ||

| I agree with tiran. TemporaryFile(...) returns a file-like object, the details are implementation specific. |
