[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-9226) IOUtils.CloseQuietly() to intercept RuntimeExceptions as well as IOExceptions

Steve Loughran created HADOOP-9226:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: IOUtils.CloseQuietly() to intercept RuntimeExceptions as well as IOExceptions
                 Key: HADOOP-9226
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9226
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: util
    Affects Versions: 1.1.1, 2.0.3-alpha
            Reporter: Steve Loughran
            Priority: Minor


A stack trace of mine shows that call of {{IOException.closeQuietly()}} forwarded an NPE up from the JetS3t library's {{close()}} method. We *may* want to have the various {{CloseQuietly()}} method intercept and log such things too, on the assumption that the goal of those close operations is to downgrade all close-time exceptions into log events.

If people agree that's what we want, I'll do the patch & test
