//eclipse result: Resource leak: 'variable' is never closed

Answer 1

add variable.close();
Closing your Scanner means you cut the connection to the keyboard or in other words: your program is not waiting for user input anymore.

Most of the IDE's closes the Scanner if you don't use the close method. But I'm not sure what will happen if you have not closed the scanner in an executable Java program.
