Roger Whitcomb created PIVOT-968: ------------------------------------ Summary: Use try-with-resources internally now that Java 7 is required Key: PIVOT-968 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-968 Project: Pivot Issue Type: Improvement Components: core-io, core-serialization, wtk, wtk-terra Affects Versions: 2.1 Environment: All Reporter: Roger Whitcomb Assignee: Roger Whitcomb Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.1
Java 7 introduced a "try-with-resources" statement that automatically calls the "close()" method for resources that implement the (new) AutoCloseable interface, which includes most/all I/O related objects, and more. Pivot could benefit internally with more readable / maintainable code using this construct. Since Java 7 is now required for the 2.1 (and later) releases, this is a reasonable step to upgrade the code internally (see PIVOT-895). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
