Description Constantin Wolber 2002-06-06 02:38:44 UTC 
I was unable to delete a jar file from a CVS filesystem 
after mounting it once. The build Script created a jar 
file in one the CVS directory and after I mounted it once 
I wasn't able to delete it until I shut down the IDE. 
(Reproducable).

org.netbeans.modules.vcscore.VcsFileSystem$12: Cannot 
delete VCS file deploy/lib/jce1_2_1.jar in CVS D:\-=[DATEN]

Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2002-06-06 12:21:52 UTC 
It seems, that java.io.File.delete() returned false on that file.
Perhaps the file was locked by some other process in Windows?
Were you able to delete the file in Windows?

If java.io.File.delete() returns false, I can not do anything with it.
Thus closing as "wontfix".
Comment 2 Jiri Kovalsky 2002-06-06 12:39:07 UTC 
Verified until Constantin provides us with required information.
Comment 3 Constantin Wolber 2002-06-06 13:22:53 UTC 
I was only using netbeans during the whole time.

I wasn't able to delete this file from windows during this time either. I had to close Netbeans in Order to delete this 
file. Windows told me that some other process had a grab on this file. But as soon as I closed Netbeans I was able to 
delete the file.

Just saw that it probably isn't a VCS bug but more one of the Jar File Filesystem. Since the same error occus when trying 
the same on a local directory.
Comment 4 Martin Entlicher 2002-06-06 14:59:24 UTC 
Thanks for the additional info. From what did you describe it really
seems like a Jar File Filesystem problem. Moving to openide...
Comment 5 Martin Entlicher 2002-06-06 15:01:54 UTC 
Changed the summary to better suit to the problem.
Comment 6 _ ttran 2002-06-10 09:28:16 UTC 
this is a well known problem of the current impl of JarFileSystem.  We
use JDK's impl of jar handling which keeps locks on jar file much
longer than necessary.
