文章标签： java file关闭吗

Java的File类代表文件和目录路径名的抽象表示，它主要用于文件和目录的管理，如检查存在性，但不直接处理输入输出流。而RandomAccessFile类提供了读写文件的随机访问能力，它包含close()方法来关闭文件。File类没有close()方法是因为文件在Java中不需要显式关闭，其资源通常在垃圾回收时自动释放。然而，这种设计在某些情况下可能导致混淆。

While java.io.RandomAccessFile does have a close() method java.io.File doesn't. Why is that? Is the file closed automatically on finalization or something?

Thanks!

The javadoc of the File class describes the class as:

An abstract representation of file and directory pathnames.

File is only a representation of a pathname, with a few methods concerning the filesystem (like exists()) and directory handling but actual streaming input and output is done elsewhere. Streams can be opened and closed, files cannot.

(My personal opinion is that it's rather unfortunate that Sun then went on to create RandomAccessFile, causing much confusion with its inconsistent naming.)
