Henri Tremblay commented on GROOVY-8251:
----------------------------------------
Yes. Because let's be fair, the only reason we have {{AutoCloseable}} today is
because {{Closeable}} was typed {{IOException}}. Starting from scratch, we
would only have {{Closeable}} throwing an exception.
> Implement withCloseable on AutoCloseable

> 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).
