I have a java agent in a mail-in database set to run after new mail arrives.  The agent will extract the attached file to the server OS, process it accordingly and then remove the file from the OS.  All is working except the "remove the file from the OS" part at the end of my agent.  

I call .extractFile on my embedded object and process the file.  When i'm done, i get a handle to the file with 
File myFile = new File(strFilePath);

then call

myFile.delete();

but the file is still there. If i navigate to the file in explorer and try to delete it, i get the message "File In Use: The action can't be completed because the file is open in namgr.exe".

How can I delete the file from the OS?
