Arun C Murthy commented on HADOOP-8486:
---------------------------------------
Kanna, the patch looks good. A test case would be useful to ensure we don't
regress in the future.
Also, pls mark the patch as 'Patch Available' when you think it's ready so I
can track them. Thanks!

> I noticed this problem while I am working on porting HIVE to work on windows.
> Hive is attempting to create this class object to validate the file format
> and end up with resource leak. Because of this leak, we can’t move, rename or
> delete the files on windows when there is an open file handle whereas in UNIX
> we can perform all these operation with no issues even with open file handles.
> Please suggest me if you similar issues in any other places.
