John Wagenleitner commented on GROOVY-8251:
-------------------------------------------
My initial thought was sort of the same, just add a
{{withCloseable(AutoCloseable..) throws Exception}} method. I don't think
there is any limitation, other than the old {{withCloseable(Closeable..) throws
IOException}} method would probably need to be kept for binary compatibility.
The {{throws}} clause of the old method would probably need to change but don't
think that is a problem.
There may be some confusion with the name {{withCloseable}} taking either a
{{Closeable}} or {{AutoCloseable}}, given that {{AutoCloseable}} is the more
general type. But I like the concise name {{withCloseable}} more.

> Key: GROOVY-8251
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8251
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: groovy-jdk
> Affects Versions: 2.5.0-beta-1
> Reporter: Henri Tremblay
>
> The Groovy implementation of try-with-resource is through
> {{withCloseable()}}. The problem is that {{withCloseable}} only exists for
> classes implementing the {{Closeable}} interface.
> But a try-with-resource works with the {{AutoCloseable}} interface. So
> {{withCloseable}} should probably be moved on step below to {{AutoCloseable}}
> (that {{Closeable}} extends).
