Cannot delete library loaded with JNA after disposing
I am trying to delete a DLL which has been loaded into JNA and later disposed. I have tried all the solutions described in the answer to this question, but they are not working: How to dispose library loaded with JNA
Here is code I've tried without a time delay:
import java.io.File;
import com.sun.jna.Library;
import com.sun.jna.Native;
import com.sun.jna.NativeLibrary;
class Filter {
private static ExtDLLTool DLLUtil;
final private static String dllPath = "./ExternalDownloader_64.dll";
static {
DLLUtil = (ExtDLLTool) Native.loadLibrary(dllPath, ExtDLLTool.class);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
if (DLLUtil != null) {
DLLUtil = null;
NativeLibrary lib = NativeLibrary.getInstance(dllPath);
lib.dispose();
}
File dllFile = new File(dllPath);
if(dllFile.exists()){
boolean isDeleted = dllFile.delete();
if(!isDeleted){
System.out.println("Unable to delete dll file, since it hold by jvm");
}
}
}
private interface ExtDLLTool extends Library {
String validateNomination(String dloadProps);
}
}
I added a time delay to give the native code time to release the handle:
import java.io.File;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
import com.sun.jna.Library;
import com.sun.jna.Native;
import com.sun.jna.NativeLibrary;
class Filter {
private static ExtDLLTool DLLUtil;
final private static String dllPath = "./ExternalDownloader_64.dll";
static {
DLLUtil = (ExtDLLTool) Native.loadLibrary(dllPath, ExtDLLTool.class);
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{
if (DLLUtil != null) {
DLLUtil = null;
NativeLibrary lib = NativeLibrary.getInstance(dllPath);
lib.dispose();
Thread.sleep(3000);
}
File dllFile = new File(dllPath);
if(dllFile.exists()){
Files.delete(Paths.get(dllPath));
// boolean isDeleted = dllFile.delete();
if(dllFile.exists()){
System.out.println("Unable to delete dll file, since it hold by jvm");
}
}
}
private interface ExtDLLTool extends Library {
String validateNomination(String dloadProps);
}
}
This code results in an exception implying the JVM has not released the file.
Exception in thread "main" java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: .\ExternalDownloader_64.dll at sun.nio.fs.WindowsException.translateToIOException(WindowsException.java:83) at sun.nio.fs.WindowsException.rethrowAsIOException(WindowsException.java:97) at sun.nio.fs.WindowsException.rethrowAsIOException(WindowsException.java:102) at sun.nio.fs.WindowsFileSystemProvider.implDelete(WindowsFileSystemProvider.java:269)
