Thank you godmar, currently aware of this. Bigger changes that are in the works for eosio-cpp/cc will eliminate these concerns as they will remove the generation of these temporary files altogether.

Thanks, Bucky. May I ask a follow-up question. Smart contracts are published in C++ source code form, but only the WASM code is recorded in the blockchain, is that correct? If so, how do you ensure that the source code published matches the WASM code that's activated in the blockchain as compiler toolchains are being upgraded? Related, how can blockchain users verify easily which C++ code is actually running in the blockchain's VM?

Currently, the best option users have is to use CMake to build their smart contracts. This would at least ensure that any options, defines, etc. are known for any one else to compile their smart contract. They would have to have the version of CDT that the contract was compiled with. From there they can get the hash of the code on chain and compare with their built contract. I am working on an extension to WASM (custom section) that would house some of this information. I am still trying to work out a reasonable solution to this and how to validate this when external libraries are linked into it.
