[https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/AutoCloseable.html AutoCloseable Java 8]<br>
Since Java does not have destructors and thus no RAII objects, you will need to close anything you open manually.<br>
One way to automate this is to use autocloseable classes introduced in Java 7.<br>
These classes, which implement that AutoCloseable interface, can be wrapped in a try block
This is similar to <code>using</code> in Python and C#.<br>
<syntaxhighlight lang="java">
try (Scanner scanner = new Scanner(s)) {
    while (scanner.hasNext()) {
        // do something
    }
} // close will be implicitly called
</syntaxhighlight>
