Karl Avedal commented on GERONIMO-470:
--------------------------------------

For a general solution to this, you could instead do:

URL url = new URL("jar:" + fileURL.toString() + "!/WEB-INF/web.xml");
URLConnection urlConnection = url.openConnection();
urlConnection.setUseCaches(false); // This is the key to not locking the file 
across close().
InputStream is = urlConnection.getInputStream();
// read dd
is.close();

That will not leave the file locked.

To solve this in a way that doesn't rely on turning off caching for 
URLConnection is to write a better URLStreamHandler for jars than the Sun one.
