Hi Guys,
We say that our program should never rely on finalizer blocks....so why is that we override finalizer blocks?? What is the true meaning of overriding finalize?? Anyone on this?

The best description of Object.finalize() I have seen is in the API for class Object. If you read it carefully, I believe it will answer your questions.
