-----------------------------------------
Thank you for your comment [[email protected]], [~cnauroth].
I got what is discussed in the past.
If I use FileSystem, using newInstance method and not invoke FileSystem#close
makes sense right?
> Add FileSystem#closeIfNotReferred method

> FileSystem#close closes FileSystem even if the same instance of FileSystem is
> referred by someone.
> For instance, a library using FileSystem calls FileSystem.get, and a program
> using the library calls FileSystem.get, both of instances of FileSystem is
> same.
> When the library and the program is implemented as different threads and one
> calls FileSystem.close, another fails most of operations of FileSystem.
> So, we need the method like cloesIfNotReferred, which closes FileSystem only
> if a instance of FileSystem is not referred by anyone.
