      • closeWhileHandlingException

        public static <E extends Exception> void closeWhileHandlingException​(E priorException,
                                                                     Closeable... objects)
                                                              throws E extends Exception,
                                                                     IOException

        Closes all given Closeables, suppressing all thrown exceptions. Some of the Closeables may be null, they are ignored. After everything is closed, method either throws priorException, if one is supplied, or the first of suppressed exceptions, or completes normally.

        Sample usage:

         Closeable resource1 = null, resource2 = null, resource3 = null;
 ExpectedException priorE = null;
 try {
   resource1 = ...; resource2 = ...; resource3 = ...; // Acquisition may throw ExpectedException
   ..do..stuff.. // May throw ExpectedException
 } catch (ExpectedException e) {
   priorE = e;
 } finally {
   closeWhileHandlingException(priorE, resource1, resource2, resource3);
 }

        Parameters:
        priorException - null or an exception that will be rethrown after method completion
        objects - objects to call close() on
        Throws:
        E extends Exception
        IOException

      • close

        public static void close​(Closeable... objects)
                  throws IOException
        Closes all given Closeables. Some of the Closeables may be null; they are ignored. After everything is closed, the method either throws the first exception it hit while closing, or completes normally if there were no exceptions.
        Parameters:
        objects - objects to call close() on
        Throws:
        IOException

      • closeWhileHandlingException

        public static void closeWhileHandlingException​(Closeable... objects)
        Closes all given Closeables, suppressing all thrown exceptions. Some of the Closeables may be null, they are ignored.
        Parameters:
        objects - objects to call close() on

      • getDecodingReader

        public static Reader getDecodingReader​(InputStream stream,
                                       Charset charSet)
        Wrapping the given InputStream in a reader using a CharsetDecoder. Unlike Java's defaults this reader will throw an exception if your it detects the read charset doesn't match the expected Charset.

        Decoding readers are useful to load configuration files, stopword lists or synonym files to detect character set problems. However, its not recommended to use as a common purpose reader.

        Parameters:
        stream - the stream to wrap in a reader
        charSet - the expected charset
        Returns:
        a wrapping reader

      • getDecodingReader

        public static Reader getDecodingReader​(File file,
                                       Charset charSet)
                                throws IOException
        Opens a Reader for the given File using a CharsetDecoder. Unlike Java's defaults this reader will throw an exception if your it detects the read charset doesn't match the expected Charset.

        Decoding readers are useful to load configuration files, stopword lists or synonym files to detect character set problems. However, its not recommended to use as a common purpose reader.

        Parameters:
        file - the file to open a reader on
        charSet - the expected charset
        Returns:
        a reader to read the given file
        Throws:
        IOException

      • getDecodingReader

        public static Reader getDecodingReader​(Class<?> clazz,
                                       String resource,
                                       Charset charSet)
                                throws IOException
        Opens a Reader for the given resource using a CharsetDecoder. Unlike Java's defaults this reader will throw an exception if your it detects the read charset doesn't match the expected Charset.

        Decoding readers are useful to load configuration files, stopword lists or synonym files to detect character set problems. However, its not recommended to use as a common purpose reader.

        Parameters:
        clazz - the class used to locate the resource
        resource - the resource name to load
        charSet - the expected charset
        Returns:
        a reader to read the given file
        Throws:
        IOException
