Description _ sandipchitale 2007-06-13 15:19:10 UTC 
Steps:

1. Create a heap dump file using jmap.
2. Load the heap dump file into NetBeans Profiler HeapWalker.
3. Close the HeapWalker window.

At this point it is not clear if the heap dump file has been released or not. I could not find a way to reopen the 
window.

4. Try to delete the heap dump file in windows explorer. Get a Canot delete file:Access Denied error.

Hitting garbage collect button (possibly triggering finalizers in the hopes of file release may be?) did not help 
either.

If you load the heapdump and then close it, the only way to get the HeapWalker window back is to load the heapdump 
again. You are not able to delete the file after closing the HeapWalker because of Issue 104806.
