Sonar scan says Use try-with-resources or close this “Stream” in a “finally” clause

Sonar qube is giving me the following error:

Use try-with-resources or close this “Stream” in a “finally” clause

This is my code:

Path start = Paths.get(filePath);
Stream<File> stream;
try {
    stream = Files.walk(start, 1, FileVisitOption.FOLLOW_LINKS).map(s -> s.toFile());
    List<File> files = stream.collect(Collectors.toList());
                    files.remove(0);
                    for (File f : files) {
                        String fileName = f.toPath().getFileName().toString();
                        if (fileName.matches(regex)) {
                            fileList.add(f.toPath().toString());
                        }
                    }
    } catch (IOException e) {
}

How can I fix this error?

Answer

define and open your stream this way:

try (Stream<File> stream = Files.walk(start, 1, FileVisitOption.FOLLOW_LINKS).map(s -> s.toFile())){

Doing this, the system will automatically close the stream and you don’t need to worry about it
