> The purpose of this ticket is to cross-reference hbase-2042, opened
> 12/12/2009. close() is used to release Connection resources. It is invoked
> even though the Connection object may not have been completely initialized.
> For example, the file descriptor ulimit may have been exceeded in which case
> no socket would have been acquired. The result would be an NPE in close. The
> implied contract for close() seems to be that it will never fail.
> There is a proposed patch in the hbase-2042 ticket.
