Hello, My program successfully reads features from a shapefile. At some point, long after the shapefile was read, I get the following message in my console:
org.geotools.data.shapefile.ShapefileFeatureReader finalize WARNING: There is code leaving shapefile readers unclosed, this might result in file system locks not being cleared. I tried closing the ShapefileFeatureReader instance manually but there is no “close” method available. Calling “dispose” does not help. Looking at the GeoTools code[1] (line 298), a “close” method is defined but code outside the package cannot call it. This is how I read shapefiles: public static SimpleFeatureCollection fromShapefile(String pathname) throws Exception { File file = new File(pathname); Map<String, Serializable> connectionParameters = new HashMap<>(); connectionParameters.put("url", file.toURI().toURL()); DataStore dataStore = DataStoreFinder.getDataStore(connectionParameters); String[] featureTypes = dataStore.getTypeNames(); if (featureTypes.length != 1) { throw new Exception(); } SimpleFeatureSource featureSource = dataStore.getFeatureSource(featureTypes[0]); SimpleFeatureCollection features = featureSource.getFeatures(); dataStore.dispose(); return features; } Is this the correct way to do it? My console gets spammed by the warning message and makes it difficult to read the console output my program generates. Is there anything I can do to disable warning messages by GeoTools?
