237. Using finally block immediately after the try block

We can write the finally block immediately after the try block by skipping the catch block.

Syntax -

try {
         //Code inside the try block
}

finally {
        //Code inside the finally block
}

Lets implement this on Eclipse IDE -

1. Launch Eclipse IDE, create a new Java Class 'FinallyDemo3.java' with main( ) method in the existing Java Project 'Project 46' as shown below -

2. Create a try block and write a statement which prints "I am in try block" text as shown below -

3. Create a finally block without creating catch block and write a statement which prints "I am in finally block" text as shown below -

4. Save and Run the Java class 'FinallyDemo3.java' and observe that the statements in the try block and finally block got executed and the output is displayed as shown below -

Hence finally block can be written immediately after the try block.
