The problem appears to be that we are resizing a memory mapped file which it looks like windows does not allow (which is kind of sucky).
The offending method is OffsetIndex.resize(). The most obvious fix would be to first unmap the file, then resize, then remap it. We can't do this though because Java actually doesn't support unmapping files (it does this lazily with garbage collection, which really sucks). In fact as far as I know there is NO way to guarantee an unmap occurs at a particular time, so if this is correct and windows doesn't allow resizing then this combination of suckiness means that there is no way to resize a file that has ever been mapped short of closing the process. I actually don't have access to a windows machine so it is a little hard for me to test this. The question is whether there is any work around. I am happy to change that method but we do need to be able to resize memory mapped files. On Tue, Jul 9, 2013 at 9:04 PM, Jun Rao <jun...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hmm, not sure what the issue is.
