If it safe to return an InputStream from try-with-resource [duplicate]

问题

Is it safe to return an input stream from a try-with-resource statement to handle the closing of the stream once the caller has consumed it?

public static InputStream example() throws IOException {
    ...
    try (InputStream is = ...) {
        return is;
    }
}

回答1:

It's safe, but it will be closed, so I don't think it is particularly useful... (You can't reopen a closed stream.)

See this example:

public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
    System.out.println(example());
}

public static InputStream example() throws IOException {
    try (InputStream is = Files.newInputStream(Paths.get("test.txt"))) {
        System.out.println(is);
        return is;
    }
}

Output:

sun.nio.ch.ChannelInputStream@1db9742
sun.nio.ch.ChannelInputStream@1db9742

The (same) input stream is returned (same by reference), but it will be closed. By modifying the example to this:

public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
    InputStream is = example();
    System.out.println(is + " " + is.available());
}

public static InputStream example() throws IOException {
    try (InputStream is = Files.newInputStream(Paths.get("test.txt"))) {
        System.out.println(is + " " + is.available());
        return is;
    }
}

Output:

sun.nio.ch.ChannelInputStream@1db9742 1000000
Exception in thread "main" java.nio.channels.ClosedChannelException
    at sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.ensureOpen(FileChannelImpl.java:109)
