While this interface method is declared to throw {@code + * Exception}, implementers are strongly encouraged to + * declare concrete implementations of the {@code close} method to + * throw more specific exceptions, or to throw no exception at all + * if the close operation cannot fail. + * + *

Implementers of this interface are also strongly advised + * to not have the {@code close} method throw {@link + * InterruptedException}. + * + * This exception interacts with a thread's interrupted status, + * and runtime misbehavior is likely to occur if an {@code + * InterruptedException} is {@linkplain Throwable#addSuppressed + * suppressed}. + * + * More generally, if it would cause problems for an + * exception to be suppressed, the {@code AutoCloseable.close} + * method should not throw it. + * + *

Note that unlike the {@link java.io.Closeable#close close} + * method of {@link java.io.Closeable}, this {@code close} method + * is not required to be idempotent. In other words, + * calling this {@code close} method more than once may have some + * visible side effect, unlike {@code Closeable.close} which is + * required to have no effect if called more than once. + * + * However, implementers of this interface are strongly encouraged + * to make their {@code close} methods idempotent. + * + * @throws Exception if this resource cannot be closed + */ + void close() throws Exception; +}
