Try-catch with a finally clause

A finally part of a try statement ensures a given code block is executed both in case of success and failure of the try-block

try
  try-block
catch (exception-type name)
  catch-block
...
finally
  finally-block

A try-finally control structure is sometimes used - without catch clauses - to ensure execution of the finally-block in cases the control leave the try-block abruptly
