When I tried to write an equivalent of a Java try
-with-resources statement in Kotlin, it didn't work for me.
I tried different variations of the following:
try (writer = OutputStreamWriter(r.getOutputStream())) {
// ...
}
But neither works. Does anyone know what should be used instead?
Apparently Kotlin grammar doesn't include such a construct, but maybe I'm missing something. It defines the grammar for a try
block as follows:
try : "try" block catchBlock* finallyBlock?;
There is a
use
function in kotlin-stdlib (src).How to use it:
