java 关闭的连接,在Java中什么时候URL连接关闭？

When does java let go of a connections to a URL? I don't see a close() method on either URL or URLConnection so does it free up the connection as soon as the request finishes? I'm mainly asking to see if I need to do any clean up in an exception handler.

try {

URL url = new URL("http://foo.bar");

URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();

// use the connection

}

catch (Exception e) {

// any clean up here?

}

It depends on the specific protocol specified in the protocol. Some maintain persistent connections, other close their connections when your call close in the input or outputstream given by the connection. But other than remembering to closing the streams you opened from the URLConnection, there is nothing else you can do.

From the javadoc for java.net.URLConnection

Invoking the close() methods on the

InputStream or OutputStream of an

URLConnection after a request may free

network resources associated with this

instance, unless particular protocol

specifications specify different

behaviours for it.
