A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Coding timeout for FileChannel.lock() by closing the channel from a timer thread. Get

java.io.IOException: Bad file number
        at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.lock0(Native Method)
        at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.lock(FileChannelImpl.java:750)
        at java.nio.channels.FileChannel.lock(FileChannel.java:865)

Instead of AsynchronousCloseException

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the applied test.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
test passed
ACTUAL -
test failed: wrong exception class
java.io.IOException: Bad file number
        at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.lock0(Native Method)
        at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.lock(FileChannelImpl.java:750)
        at java.nio.channels.FileChannel.lock(FileChannel.java:865)
        at Simul$Waiter.run(Simul.java:14)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:534)


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Catch IOException
and treat it as
AsynchronousCloseException

N/A

Yes, we need to handle this case and throw AsynchronousCloseException as specified. The bug arrived too late for Mustang so we have to defer it to Dolphin.
