Method Detail

close

public static void close(@Nullable
                         Closeable closeable,
                         boolean swallowIOException)
                  throws IOException

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);
     }
   }

Parameters:

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.
