ddllib: Introducing create_temp_table()
Close sibling to create_table() - will create a temporary table.
Two aspects of its usage are interesting
- you _must_ truncate the table after creation as you may be
"inheriting" an existing temp table from the former user
of your persistent connection
- you must use the tablename returned to support MSSQL and any
other DB that needs special names for temp tables
A couple of TODOs
- I just don't know how to actually munge the tablename for MSSQL
(help! Eloooooyyyy!)
- Surely Eloy will have something better than the preg_replace() ;-)
