Why RuntimeException not stop execution with finally block? - exception

Question

I ask an help to understand why this difference of behavior.
public class Test3 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Double d = new Test3().findPrice$withoutFinally();
//Double d = new Test3().findPrice$withFinally();
System.out.println(d);
}
private double findPrice$withoutFinally() {
double price = -1.0;
int attempt = 0;
do {
try {
price = getPrice();
}
catch (MyException e) {
System.out.println("Caught MyException!");
}
attempt++;
} while (attempt < 3);
return price;
}
private double findPrice$withFinally() {
double price = -1.0;
int attempt = 0;
do {
boolean retry = false;
try {
price = getPrice();
}
catch (MyException e) {
System.out.println("Caught MyException!");
}
finally {
System.out.println("finally");
if (retry) {
System.out.println("retrying...");
attempt++;
} else {
break;
}
}
} while (attempt < 3);
return price;
}
private Double getPrice() throws MyException {
if (true) {
throw new RuntimeException("Testing RE");
}
return null;
}
}
I mean this, running findPrice$withoutFinally() method I got:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Testing RE
that is the behaviour thah I expect. But running findPrice$withFinally() method I got this unexpected (for me!) behaviour:
finally
-1.0
findPrice$withFinally() should not behave as findPrice$withoutFinally() and then stop execution because of the exception?
Thanks!

Answer 1

finally block is executed ALWAYS - when there is an exception and when there is no exception
