How to Fix: When is finally run if you throw an exception from the catch block?

The finally block is always called, regardless of whether an exception is thrown or not. This ensures that the cleanup code in the finally block is executed before the program terminates.

⚠️ Why?

• When an exception is thrown, the catch block catches it and handles it. However, the finally block still runs.

The reason for this is that the finally block contains code that needs to be executed regardless of whether an exception occurred or not. For example, you might need to close a database connection, release system resources, or perform other cleanup tasks.

🔧 Example

try { // Do stuff } catch (Exception e) { throw; } finally { // Clean up }
