Joshua McKenzie updated CASSANDRA-4050:
---------------------------------------
Description:
On Windows w/older java I/O libraries the files are not opened with
FILE_SHARE_DELETE. This causes problems as hard-links cannot be deleted while
the original file is opened - our snapshots are a big problem in particular.
The nio library and FileChannels open with FILE_SHARE_DELETE which should help
remedy this problem.
Original text:
I'm using Cassandra 1.0.8, on Windows 7. When I take a snapshot of the
database, I find that I am unable to delete the snapshot directory (i.e., dir
named "{datadir}\{keyspacename}\snapshots\{snapshottag}") while Cassandra is
running: "The action can't be completed because the folder or a file in it is
open in another program. Close the folder or file and try again" [in Windows
Explorer]. If I terminate Cassandra, then I can delete the directory with no
problem.
I expect to be able to move or delete the snapshotted files while Cassandra is
running, as this should not affect the runtime operation of Cassandra.

Summary: Rewrite RandomAccessReader to use FileChannel / nio to address
Windows file access violations (was: Unable to remove snapshot files on
Windows while original sstables are live)
