[jira] [Commented] (CSV-197) CSVParser doesn't close the underlying handle after iteration

["Gary Gregory (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CSV-197?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15519430#comment-15519430 ] 

Gary Gregory commented on CSV-197:
----------------------------------

The parser implements close() which calls close() on the lexer which closes() the reader.

So all you have to do is manage the parser in a try-with-resources block:

{code:java}
  try (final CSVParser parser = CSVParser.parse(...)) {
  ...
  }
{code}

> The following code leaks file handles:
> {code}
> CSVParser parser = // setup parser
> for (CSVRecord rec: parser) {
> }
> // leak
> {code}
> I'd expect the underlying iterator to close() if it's finished iterating.
