Managing file reading, closing + buffer allocation and deallocation

[dee0xeed]

@LucasSantos91

I believe you’ll close the files and free the buffers in any case, regardless of whether the operation succeds or fails

Of course!

@LucasSantos91

so you want to use defer

So, the rule number one: if I just want to do some cleanup (close files/dirs, deallocate things and so on), I simply put defer right after each operation that needs cleanup given that I acquire a resource with try getSomeThing(). Did I get you right (regarding first part of the answer)?
