Difference between try-finally and try-catch

Question

What\'s the difference between

    fooBar();
} finally {
    barFoo();
}

and

try {
  fooBar();
} catch(Throwable thro         


        

Answer 1

try is used to run a method that may throw an exception

catch is used to "catch" stop that exception

finally is used for any clean up needed from that exception being caught or not

try{
    myObject.riskyMethod(); // run a method that may throw an exception
}
catch(Exception ex){
    myLogger.log(ex.Message); // "catch" stop that exception
}
finally{
    myObject = null; // clean up needed from that exception being caught
}
