[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-93?page=all ]

Stephen Colebourne resolved IO-93.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Was more complicated than I expeted. I have coded a solution, however it really 
seems that Process in the JDK is basically rubbish. Anyway, I've improved what 
we have, rather than go to a full blown commons-exec solution.

I can't test or reproduce you're problem on my Windows box. Since you have a 
test case, can you please try the latest code and reply back (by closing or 
reopening the call) as to whether the problem is fixed. Thanks.

>         Environment: Java 1.5_06 VM, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0 OS

> Calling the FileSystemUtils.getFreeSpace() method multiple times (~3000) will 
> generate an IOException with the following text: "Too many open files". 
> Documentation from Sun says this problem is due to not destroying the 
> java.lang.Process object returned from the System.exec() call.
> Some sample code I wrote confirms that calling destroy prevents this error 
> from occurring.
