1. You can't use super.super.aMethod(); in java

2. If an exception is thrown during execution of the finalize method of an object, then the exception is ignored and the object is destroyed.

Please check if both are true or not!

I know that the first statement is correct but I am not sure about the second one.

Can some one please explain the following statement:

If an exception is thrown during execution of the finalize method of an object, then the exception is ignored and the object is destroyed.

I read like this about finalize method:

finalize is called only once for an object before it is garbage collected. If any exception is thrown in finalize, the object is still eligible for garbage collection (at the discretion of gc). The garbage collector thread runs independent of any application. So it simply ignores the exception and collects the objects if possible.

I am not sure about it.
