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

["Steve Loughran (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9226?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Steve Loughran resolved HADOOP-9226.
------------------------------------

      Resolution: Invalid
    Release Note: That comment about {{cleanup}} made me go and look at {{IOUtils}} more closely -it turns out that it's Commons-IO that I'd mistakenly import. Their {{closeQuietly()}} doesn't handle exceptions other than IOE -but {{cleanup}} does. Marking as invalid.

> 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
