Weird bug in Java try-catch-finally
- by kcr
I'm using JODConverter to convert .xls and .ppt to .pdf format. For this i have code something like
try{
//do something
System.out.println("connecting to open office");
OpenOfficeConnection connection = new SocketOpenOfficeConnection(8100);
System.out.println("connection object created");
connection.connect();
System.out.println("connection to open office successful");
//do something
if(!successful)
throw new FileNotFoundException();
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("hello here");
System.out.println("Caught Exception while converting to PDF ");
LOGGER.error("Error in converting media" + e.getMessage());
throw new MediaConversionFailedException();
}finally{
decode_pdf.closePdfFile();
System.out.println("coming in finally");
//do something here
}
My Output :
connecting to open office
connection object created
coming in finally
P.S. return type of method is void
How is it possible ? Even if there is some problem in connection.connect(), it s'd come in catch block. confused
