Create a file that attaches to the lifetime of the process in python

I'm looking for away to create a file that is attached for the life time of the process, and that another process can access it.
Assume process A that creates a file, assume process B that can access this file (so it needs to know its location) , now when process A is being shutdown (no matter the cause) the file is being deleted.
As far as I can tell tmpfile is not good enough as process B would not be able to locate the file (in trivial way)
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
python python-3.x

To attach the file lifetime with the process lifetime you can use signal handling (Cf. doc). You just need to call
signal(SIGTERM, your_deleting_file_method)
inside the A process. By doing this you are free to define a static filename if it meets your need.
