Mario Fusco commented on DROOLS-1444:
-------------------------------------

In that example you're showing how to use try-with-resource with the StringWriter. That makes perfectly sense to me but it is not what I was asking. I was asking for a practical example using the KieSession because in my opinion in that case it is not that useful and using a try-with-resource is more verbose and cumbersome than simply adding a dispose. 

I cannot add this to drools 6.x because it has to stay Java 6 compatible, but I could do this on master (drools 7) that is Java 8 based. However I really don't see the usefulness in doing so. Moreover your scenario seems to fit far better a StatelessKieSession which doesn't require any dispose. Did you give it a try?

> Given the new Java 7 and 8 syntax features, it would be useful that KieSession (and maybe some other APIs that involve "disposability") to implement java.lang.AutoCloseable. The implementation can call directly the "dispose" method (unless I miss something) and over time dispose might become deprecated.
