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).
