Garth Pickell updated CASSANDRA-9951:
-------------------------------------
    Description: 
So in windows, the JVM tends to open files without FILE_SHARE_DELETE when using 
the older java.io.* components. This, I think, is a problem for Cassandra in 
that:

a) it is not standard behavior.
b) Cassandra kind of relies on this a lot.

However, if you use the java.nio.file.Files class instead for opening files. 
These methods use FILE_SHARE_DELETE.

I have personally tested this.

> For opening files, change over usages of java.io.* to java.nio.file.Files 
> counterparts to achieve standard behavior with Windows IFS.
