In regards to exceptions, which of the following are true?

a) An exception can be thrown by a no argument constructor.

b) An exception can only be thrown by a multi argument constructor.

c) Uncaught exceptions should be listed in the throws clause of a class definition.

d) In all cases except exiting the JVM, the finally clause of a try block is executed.

are the answers a and d. what is the meaning of d?

hi Jaman,

i think D is talking about System.exit(1); In this case the finally cluase will not be executed

Regarding answer d :



If you execute this code, "finally-1" will be printed, ok ?
(This demonstrate "In all cases, the finally clause of a try block is executed")
But if you uncomment the line System.exit(0), there's no output (JVM exiting before finally block can be executed).

Hope that hepls.

the finally clause of a try block is executed regardless catch or uncatch exception .Except exit JVM by system.exit(1).
