try {// Normal execution path. throw new EmptyStackException ();} catch (ExampleException ee) {// Deal with the ExampleException.} finally {// Always run when leaving the try block (including finally clauses), regardless of whether any exceptions were thrown or whether they were handled. // Cleans up and closes resources acquired in the try block.
According to a 2008 paper by Westley Weimer and George Necula, the syntax of the try...finally blocks in Java is a contributing factor to software defects. When a method needs to handle the acquisition and release of 3–5 resources, programmers are apparently unwilling to nest enough blocks due to readability concerns, even when this would be ...
try-with-resources statements are a special type of try-catch-finally statements introduced as an implementation of the dispose pattern in Java SE 7. In a try-with-resources statement the try keyword is followed by initialization of one or more resources that are released automatically when the try block execution is finished. Resources must ...
Social pressure is a major influence on the scope of exceptions and use of exception-handling mechanisms, i.e. "examples of use, typically found in core libraries, and code examples in technical books, magazine articles, and online discussion forums, and in an organization’s code standards". [10]
In this C# example, all exceptions are caught regardless of type, and a new generic exception is thrown, keeping only the message of the original exception. The original stacktrace is lost, along with the type of the original exception, any exception for which the original exception was a wrapper, and any other information captured in the ...

This case needs two comparisons: one for EOF and another for all other errors.

Try blocks also impose a performance penalty even if no exception is thrown, a distributed cost that Icon normally avoids.
