the skipBytes method ensures it never goes above this
{quote}

How is skipBytes protecting against blowing past our limit?  (note: me just 
being dense here is not out of the question)
{code:java, title=skipBytes}
 64     public int skipBytes(int n) throws IOException
 65     {
 66         if (n <= 0)
 67             return 0;
 68         seek(getPosition() + n);
 69         return position;
 70     }
{code}

It looks like this exposes seek() to the outside world with a protection 
against negative inputs but not much else.  That being said - the old code 
looks like it has the same potential problem:

{code:java, title=old code}
    public int skipBytes(int n) throws IOException
    {
        seekInternal(getPosition() + n);
        return position;
    }
{code}

> I'm using Cassandra 1.0.8, on Windows 7.  When I take a snapshot of the 
> database, I find that I am unable to delete the snapshot directory (i.e., dir 
> named "{datadir}\{keyspacename}\snapshots\{snapshottag}") while Cassandra is 
> running:  "The action can't be completed because the folder or a file in it 
> is open in another program.  Close the folder or file and try again" [in 
> Windows Explorer].  If I terminate Cassandra, then I can delete the directory 
> with no problem.
> I expect to be able to move or delete the snapshotted files while Cassandra 
> is running, as this should not affect the runtime operation of Cassandra.
