JDK7的try简化写法

今天遇到这样的代码

public static int countWordInFile(String filename, String word) {
       int counter = 0;
       try (FileReader fr = new FileReader(filename)) {
           try (BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr)) {
               String line = null;
               while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
                   int index = -1;
                   while (line.length() >= word.length() && (index = line.indexOf(word)) >= 0) {
                       counter++;
                       line = line.substring(index + word.length());
                   }
               }
           }
       } catch (Exception ex) {
           ex.printStackTrace();
       }
       return counter;
   }

这段代码中的try在JDK6及以前的版本中会报try括号后的错，因为没有这种写法。这种写法在JDk7及以后版本可以用。其相当于如下代码

public static int countWordInFile(String filename, String word)
throws IOException {
int counter = 0;
FileReader fr = new FileReader(filename);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr);
try {
try {
String line = null;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
int index = -1;
while (line.length() >= word.length()
&& (index = line.indexOf(word)) >= 0) {
counter++;
line = line.substring(index + word.length());
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return counter;
} finally {
fr.close();
br.close();
}
}

其实就是简化finally，即try后小括号里的代码不再需要在finally代码块中释放。简化了代码书写。
