Question

When should a Java developer choose try-with-resources deliberately?

  1. Choose try-with-resources mainly when you want to postpone validation and fix problems manually later.
  2. Choose try-with-resources whenever you want the code to look more advanced, even if the design gets less clear.
  3. Use try-with-resources for files, streams, readers, JDBC handles, and any other AutoCloseable resource.
  4. Choose try-with-resources only to avoid modeling domain rules explicitly in Java code.

Hint

Think about the production scenario where the choice genuinely improves the code.

Answer and rationale

Correct answer: C. Use try-with-resources for files, streams, readers, JDBC handles, and any other AutoCloseable resource.

Use try-with-resources for files, streams, readers, JDBC handles, and any other AutoCloseable resource. Interviewers often ask this to see whether you can connect the concept to real design decisions.
