Hi, I tried to open file-like object ZipExtFile in one zip file, after operations, I close it and after all, close ZipFile.
But I still can not remove the zip file immediately.

This problem happens on Windows, error msg:
WindowsError: [Error 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process: ......

Sample code as below:

z = ZipFile('D:\\1', 'r')
zlist = z.infolist()
for zi in zlist:
    zf = z.open(zi)
    zf.close()

z.close()
os.remove(attach)

This bug was solved in python 3.2. Pyhton 3.1 is affected.

This is not a windows issue: the file reference is kept in all platforms.

This seems to be solved in 2c370065c1b4 and 260ff379115c.

See issue #9846.
