APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Abstract:
  
  Attempts to import a web service policy set into the workbench
  results in the file being locked
  
  Error Description:
  
  When a web service policy set is imported into the workbench,
  the product keeps a lock on the file until it is shut down.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  - Open a new workspace
  - Go to File > New > Other > General > Project > Next >
  Call the project "LockTestCase" > Finish
  - Right click the project > import > Web Services > WebSphere
  Policy Sets > Next > Browse to an exported policy set (zip
  file) > Finish
  - Do not close the product or the problem will not be reproduced
  - Try to delete the zip file that you selected to import into
  the workspace. The file will be locked by the product and you
  will be unable to delete it.
  
  WORKAROUND:
  
  Close and re-start the product
  
  The file will no longer be locked and you will be able to delete
  it after the product terminates.
