Does try/finally really? I'm not so sure. What happens if you end a

Does the code in finally really get invoked? May have to test
that...

No, finally is only invoked after all the try & catch logic is
completed. It won't invoke when the whole process is abnormally
terminated ... no more than any other language construct when you
forcibly kill the process (or kill the power).

finally won't even invoke if you do a NORMAL termination of a java application ... as no exception is generally thrown. You can, however, add a hook to the runtime environment to run a process when a normal termination is invoked (Runtime.addShutdownHook) ... very similar to the CEE4RAGE api.
