XMLReader not releasing file reference 2003-08-12 - By Rob Outar
Hi all,
I have an application that only needs to read preprocessing instructions
from an XML file. Since I am only interested in Processing Instructions
when I encounter the start element I throw a SAX Exception to abort parsing:
public void startElement(String uri, String localName, String qName,
Attributes attributes) throws SAXException {
throw new SAXException("Abort Parsing");
Once this exception is encountered by the client application I then try to
delete the XML file, some of the XML files I read can be deleted while
others cannot. The problem seems to occur on large files ( > 200kb )....
Is there any reason the XMLReader would maintain the file reference? I am
not sure what is happening as I mentioned usually all of the smaller files
are deleted just fine but larger ones seem to have a file reference and
File.delete() fails (return false).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob
