Change to a real OS ? ;)
Im not sure that there is an easy way to "fix" it under win32. What we can do
is dispose of all classloader material, call System.gc(0 and wait a bit and
hope that the GC has released file lock. Not sure.

yep - still necessary. The reason is that I see installtion happening only
once - not everytime you start up phoenix.
So i want to do something like
install.sh myApp.sar
and then later on when I want to uninstalll it do something like
uninstall.sh myApp.sar
or something. Currently we install + uninstall everytime phoenix launches -
however that is mainly legacy from ages ago ;)
Does that make sense ?
