Is there a YouTrack issue for

Closeable

in stdlib? I remember the verdict being stdlib itself doesn't use it so it won't provide it, but there should a ticket somewhere.

Hopefully kotlinx.io will motivate its inclusion. It's really a pain to not have this and have every library re-invent it with the necessary typealiasing and providing their own

use

function

🤞🏼

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-31066 We discussed it recently and decided not to provide it for now and to focus instead on a more versatile resource management pattern. The prototype of that approach will most likely be in kotlinx.io library.

Thanks!
