You can't, unless you modify the code in:

boost/interprocess/detail/temp_dir_helper.hpp

Why do you want to change the location of those files?

Ion Hi Ion, I have a larger application an i would like to have all temporary files in one place. It would be easier to maintain for end users. I already changed temp_dir_helper but i was asking if there was a better way.

Thanks for your reply, Eugen Stoianovici
