java: try finally blocks execution [duplicate]

Answer 1

You are returning x before you exit try. I would do this:

public class TryCatchTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println(test());
    }
    static int test() {
        int x = 1;
        try {
            do something with x.
        } finally {
            do something that will happen even in case of error;
            x = x + 1;
            return x;
        }
    }
}
