JDBC resource opened but not safely closed

Reports JDBC resources that are not safely closed. JDBC resources reported by this inspection include java.sql.Connection, java.sql.Statement, java.sql.PreparedStatement, java.sql.CallableStatement, and java.sql.ResultSet.

By default, the inspection assumes that the resources can be closed by any method with 'close' or 'cleanup' in its name.

Example:

  ResultSet findAllElements(Connection connection) throws SQLException {
    PreparedStatement statement = connection.prepareStatement("SELECT * FROM TABLE");//statement is not closed
    statement.execute();
    return statement.getResultSet();
  }

Locating this inspection

By ID

Can be used to locate inspection in e.g. Qodana configuration files, where you can quickly enable or disable it, or adjust its settings.

JDBCResourceOpenedButNotSafelyClosed

Via Settings dialog

Path to the inspection settings via IntelliJ Platform IDE Settings dialog, when you need to adjust inspection settings directly from your IDE.

Settings or Preferences | Editor | Inspections | Java | Resource management

Use the following options to configure the inspection:

Whether a JDBC resource is allowed to be opened inside a try block. This style is less desirable because it is more verbose than opening a resource in front of a try block.
Whether the resource can be closed by any method call with the resource passed as argument.

Inspection options

Here you can find the description of settings available for the JDBC resource opened but not safely closed inspection, and the reference of their default values.

Allow resource to be opened inside a 'try' block: Not selected
