No, I haven't, because IO does not use this itself. My suggestion is providing an interface and a convenience method, which an expression of this interface als argument. In this method opening and closing will be done. I think, this would be the natural way in java. When closures came, the client code will look short. I have explained this here: http://www.aformatik.de/blog/blog-post/2009/11/09/refactoring-snippet-closure.html Sorry, this is in german, but you could see the code, specially from the example "praktisches Beispiel". This is just the idea, closing has to be worked out.
