As far as I read, smarty needs such a folder. But one can set any folder, it doesn't have to be templates_c/ (and according to the docs, /templates_c/ like we use it - under the webserver-root - is a bad idea). Shouldn't it always be possible to create a temp-directory? We could use that.

try {
  $smarty->fetch('eval:'. $templateString);
  // everything is fine…
} catch(SmartyException $e) {
  // error occured
}

// eval a string template and do not store compiled code
$smarty->display('eval:'.$string);

// display string template and store compiled code
$smarty->display('string:'.$string);

A very simple solution to your problem would be to extend the internal file resource and simply make it recompiling:

Code:
require_once '…/Smarty.class.php';

class EvaledFileResource extends Smarty_Internal_Resource_File {
    public function populate(Smarty_Template_Source $source, Smarty_Internal_Template $_template=null) {
        parent::populate($source, $_template);
        $source->recompiled = true;
    }
}

$smarty = new Smarty();
$smarty
    ->setTemplateDir('./templates')
    ->registerResource('file', new EvaledFileResource());

$smarty
    ->assign('foo', 'hello world')
    ->display('test.tpl');

I am a peaceful man. No military terminology is needed to declare that I was off for a few days, gladly. I even remember to have said and left that somewhere... but good that Malte solved your problem!

Hehe Funny thing is that "AWOL" is nearly as long as "away", which describes the same situation in a kinder way
