What is use of finally block in exception handling rather Exception class can catch all the generated exceptions?

try{ } catch(){ } finally{ }

finally black execute always. You can write code to do task like memory release (object dispose in file read ) Long answer: "The finally block always executes when the try block exits. This ensures that the finally block is executed even if an unexpected exception occurs. But finally is useful for more than just exception handling — it allows the programmer to avoid having cleanup code accidentally bypassed by a return, continue, or break. Putting cleanup code in a finally block is always a good practice, even when no exceptions are anticipated."
