Hey Alan,

Would it be a good idea if we add this Windows limitation to the NIO javadocs somewhere, say in the FileChannel class? I spent a lot of time chasing this down until I finally figured out it was a known issue.

Several jigsaw unit tests are failing on Windows because of bug 4715154 [1] which was closed a long time ago as "Will Not Fix". Does anyone have any suggestions as the best way to workaround this, short of replacing the call to FileChannel.map with FileChannel.read? Are there any plans to fix this in the
future?

Thanks,

This is a limitation of Windows and I'm not aware of any way to create a file-mapping that would allow the file be deleted while the mapping exists (if there is a way then it would be great to know about it). In a couple of tests we've had to do an ugly System.gc() + short sleep at the end of the test to
trigger the unmap.
