Mark Miller commented on SOLR-914:
----------------------------------

I agree with Kay Kay and Lance here - I don't think we should be doing any 
closing/shutdown with finalize. Logging a warning seems like the right way to 
go to me. This is the type of thing that hides problems, and it just doesn't do 
it cleanly.

> There seems to be a number of classes - that implement finalize() method.  
> Given that it is perfectly ok for a Java VM to not to call it - may be - 
> there has to some other way  { try .. finally - when they are created to 
> destroy them } to destroy them and the presence of finalize() method , ( 
> depending on implementation ) might not serve what we want and in some cases 
> can end up delaying the gc process, depending on the algorithms. 
> $ find . -name *.java | xargs grep finalize

> May be we need to revisit these occurences from a design perspective to see 
> if they are necessary / if there is an alternate way of managing guaranteed 
> destruction of resources.
