Utility methods for working with Closeable objects.
Author:Michael Lancaster
Since:1.0
/** * Utility methods for working with {@link Closeable} objects. * * @author Michael Lancaster * @since 1.0 */
@Beta @GwtIncompatible public final class Closeables { @VisibleForTesting static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(Closeables.class.getName()); private Closeables() {}
Closes a Closeable, with control over whether an IOException may be thrown. This is primarily useful in a finally block, where a thrown exception needs to be logged but not propagated (otherwise the original exception will be lost).

If swallowIOException is true then we never throw IOException but merely log it.

Example:


public void useStreamNicely() throws IOException {
  SomeStream stream = new SomeStream("foo");
  boolean threw = true;
  try {
    // ... code which does something with the stream ...
    threw = false;
  } finally {
    // If an exception occurs, rethrow it only if threw==false:
    Closeables.close(stream, threw);
  }
 }
Params:
  • closeable – the Closeable object to be closed, or null, in which case this method does nothing
  • swallowIOException – if true, don't propagate IO exceptions thrown by the close methods
Throws:
  • IOException – if swallowIOException is false and close throws an IOException.

public static void close(@Nullable Closeable closeable, boolean swallowIOException) throws IOException { if (closeable == null) { return; } try { closeable.close(); } catch (IOException e) { if (swallowIOException) { logger.log(Level.WARNING, "IOException thrown while closing Closeable.", e); } else { throw e; } } }
Closes the given InputStream, logging any IOException that's thrown rather than propagating it.

While it's not safe in the general case to ignore exceptions that are thrown when closing an I/O resource, it should generally be safe in the case of a resource that's being used only for reading, such as an InputStream. Unlike with writable resources, there's no chance that a failure that occurs when closing the stream indicates a meaningful problem such as a failure to flush all bytes to the underlying resource.

Params:
  • inputStream – the input stream to be closed, or null in which case this method does nothing

Closes the given Reader, logging any IOException that's thrown rather than propagating it.
