Question: Do I need to close ResponseBody?

[Malachiasz]

When Retrofit2 returns okhttp3.ResponseBody then it has to be closed in order to avoid memory leaks, right? It's something what I have just noticed in our code and am not sure.

@GET("accountId")
@WorkerThread
Call<ResponseBody> getUserData(@Header(NetworkConstants.Header.AUTHORIZATION) String accessToken);

...
Response<ResponseBody> response = interface.getUserData();
// do something with response
response.body().close()

Only if you have @Streaming on the method. Otherwise it's fully buffered. We should document it as such.

@JakeWharton Is this done? Can I work on this?

I am getting cannot make a new request because the previous response is still open: please call response.close().

Any solution?
