Try with multiple Resource in Java

Question

I am new in Java8, and I want to know if, for the AutoCloseable resource, I have to add a try for each resource, or it will work with the code above

try (Connection conn = getConnection();) {

            Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();

            ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery(sql);

            while (rset.next()) {
                TelefonicaDataVO vo = new TelefonicaDataVO();
                vo.setTelefonicaDataId(rset.getString("Telefonica_PSD_ID"));
                vo.setReceptionDate(nvl(rset.getTimestamp("CREATION_DATE")));
                vo.setMessage(nvl(rset.getString("MESSAGE")));
                ret.add(vo);
            }
        }

Try with resources can be used with multiple resources by declaring them all in the try block and this feature introduced in java 7 not in java 8 If you have multiple you can give like below

try (
        java.util.zip.ZipFile zf =
             new java.util.zip.ZipFile(zipFileName);
        java.io.BufferedWriter writer = 
            java.nio.file.Files.newBufferedWriter(outputFilePath, charset)
    ) {
        // Enumerate each entry
        for (java.util.Enumeration entries =
                                zf.entries(); entries.hasMoreElements();) {
            // Get the entry name and write it to the output file
            String newLine = System.getProperty("line.separator");
            String zipEntryName =
                 ((java.util.zip.ZipEntry)entries.nextElement()).getName() +
                 newLine;
            writer.write(zipEntryName, 0, zipEntryName.length());
        }
    }

In this example, the try-with-resources statement contains two declarations that are separated by a semicolon: ZipFile and BufferedWriter. When the block of code that directly follows it terminates, either normally or because of an exception, the close methods of the BufferedWriter and ZipFile objects are automatically called in this order. Note that the close methods of resources are called in the opposite order of their creation..
