If we write return statement in try, catch and finally block, which one will execute when and why ?

Question

Sigiloso · Accepted Answer

The return written in finally will take precedence over others.

Saksham · Answer

Finally block will definitely execute, because it always gets executed and very important code is to be put in finally block like closing of file, return statement etc.

Sigiloso · Answer

public class TryCatch {
	
	public static int getReturn() {
		try {
			return 1;
		}
		catch(Exception e) {
			return 2;
		}
		finally {
			return 3;
		}
	}
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.out.println(getReturn());
	}

}

3 will be returned.

public class trycatch {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		trycatch tc = new trycatch();
		System.out.println(tc.tryCatch());
	}
	public int tryCatch(){
		try{
			//return 1;
			System.out.println("try");
			throw new Exception();
		}catch(Exception e){
			System.out.println("catch");
			return 2;
		}finally{
			System.out.println("finally");
			return 3;
		}
	}

}
	Output: 
try
catch
finally
3
