Hi everyone,

I am having a problem with the java.io.File.delete() method while
calling my function and running multiple threads within it. I have
written a function which is going to remove a file in a directory. This
function works well when a single thread executes it. But causes
problems in multi-threaded environment. Each thread creates a new
object and calls the removeFiles()
method in its object. Each thread is trying to delete a file in its own
directory, but delete() call seems to work for some of the threads but
fails for others.

Please help..

Thank in advance
vISHAL

Hi Roeby,

removeFiles() is user define function name, which is internally calling
File.delete() method only.

No, i am not deleting an already deleted file.

No, each threads has diff files, so there is no questions of locking
and all.

Thanks for your reply.... but i got solution for these issues.

When i called System.gc() before deleting any files then its working
fine for me. I don't know the logical reason but now its working fine
for me. ;)

Thanks,
vISHAL
