If you close a BufferedReader that was created with an InputStream like this



b = new BifferedReader( new FileInputStream(file));




Then you do: b.close(), will you leak a file handle?

Or will b.close() close the InputStream also?

BufferedReader.close() calls the the close method of the Reader specified in the constructor.
