Sam Halliday created VFS-594:
--------------------------------
Summary: cache holds onto ZipFiles, which leak file handlers
Key: VFS-594
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-594
Project: Commons VFS
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Sam Halliday
The wonderful Java implementation of ZipFile opens up the file on instance
creation. That's exceptionally wasteful on Linux but downright buggy on
Windows, because Windows will then obtain an exclusive lock on that file.
In ENSIME, this has the wonderful side effect of making compilation silently
fail, because the compiler can't write out to the jar file, because it's being
held by the IDE process.
The references are being kept alive by the VFS cache. I'm going to try to
disable it, as well as attempt as much manual closing of ZipFiles as I possibly
can.
