public interface Closeable

An AutoCloseable whose close method may throw an IOException.

Method Summary

void	close() Closes the object and release any system resources it holds.

Method Detail

close

void close()
    throws IOException

Closes the object and release any system resources it holds.

Although only the first call has any effect, it is safe to call close multiple times on the same object. This is more lenient than the overridden AutoCloseable.close(), which may be called at most once.
