The Code in a Finally Clause will Never Fail to Execute, Right

Using System.exit(1); in try block will not allow finally code to execute

The code in a finally clause is designed to execute regardless of whether an exception is thrown or not. However, there are certain situations where the finally block may not execute.

Here are a few scenarios:

  1. System.exit(): If the JVM exits, the finally block may not be executed.
  2. Infinite loop or hanging: If there is an infinite loop or the program hangs, the finally block may not get a chance to execute.
  3. Power failure or hardware issues: Unforeseen circumstances like power failure or hardware issues may prevent the finally block from executing.

So, while the finally block is intended to always execute, it’s not an absolute guarantee in all scenarios. In normal program flow and exception handling, the finally block should execute.
