Does a finally block run even if you throw a new Exception?

Question

In this code will someVar be set even if the catch block is executed and the second Exception is thrown?

public void someFunction() throws Excep         


        

Answer 1

Finally, block always executes.

public class ExceptionTest {

public static void someFunction(String input) throws Exception {
    try {
        if( input.equals("ABC") ) {
            System.out.println("Matched");
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        throw new Exception(e);
    } finally {
        System.out.println("Input Is "+input+" Finally Executed!!!");
    }
}

/**
 * @param args
 */
public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    try {
        System.out.println("********* Test with VALUE ********* ");
        someFunction("ABC");
        System.out.println("\r\n********* Test with NULL  ********* ");
        someFunction(null);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

}
