---------------------------------------
@Sanjay - Trunk has a fix for it already with lot of other code changes so we
may not require a patch for it. Please let me know if you see I am missing
something. 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.
