[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-11095) How about Null check when closing inputstream object in JavaKeyStoreProvider#() ?

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11095?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14136988#comment-14136988 ] 

Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-11095:
-----------------------------------------

It's not needed. By the time the try/finally block is hit, is MUST be non-null. If openStream failed the assignment would fail, and hence the value of {{is}} wouldn't have been assigned.

Have you actually seen this occur?

if so, {{IOUtils.closeStream()}} is the way to close streams in the Hadoop code
