Finally block will always execute except the below cases: Call the System.exit() method explicitly, power failure, JVM crash, software crash etc.
public class Main { String getWebsiteName() { try { return "w3spoint.com"; } catch(Exception e) { return "java.com"; } finally { System.out.println("Finally block executed even after a return statement."); } } public static void main(String[] args) { Main main = new Main(); System.out.println(main.getWebsiteName()); } } |
