What will happen if you put return statement or System.exit () on try or catch block? Will finally block execute?

Answer 1

Answer of this question in Java is that finally block will execute even if you put a return statement in the try block or catch block but finally block won't run if you call System.exit() from try or catch block.

Answer 2

Oops, I was dead wrong with my previous answer. sadiya is correct. Here's what I tested:

public static void main([...]){
System.out.println(testReturn());
}
public static int testReturn(){
int a = 1;
int b = 2;
try {
// System.exit(0);
return a;
}
catch(Exception e){
return b;
}
finally{
System.out.println("Wait, here's a sout!");
}
}

Outputs :
Wait, here's a sout!

if you uncomment exit(0), you get no output at all.

TIL!
