Yes,We can write the return statement in try catch & finally. The only thing is that even if we write return statement in try bloack or catch block the finally block will always get executed.The only case in which finally block does not execute is when we write system.exit(0) in either try or catch.

class Srikanth
{

 public static void main(String args[])
 {

  Srikanth s=new Srikanth();
  int sri=get();

  System.out.println("return value"+sri);

 }

 public int get()
 {
  try
    {

    int a=0;
    int b=5;
    int c=b/a;

    System.out.println("c....."+c);

    return 0;
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {

    System.out.println("Exception....."+e);
    return 1;
    }

    finally
    {
     System.out.println("Finally Block.........");
     return 0;
    }
  }
}

According to this program v can return a value from try/catch.finally block

Ofcourse we can write return statement in all three (try, catch, finally) blocks.

Depending on the flow of exception either the return statement from try block or the return statement in catch block will get executed. But as we also have return in finally the return value of finally will override the previously return value either from try or catch block.

We can write return in try, catch or finally, however in finally block even if return is the last statement it would give warning while compilation saying “finally block does not complete normally”. It would be ideal to set a variable eg. Int returnType, and assign diff values in try, catch, finally and specify return after the finally block completes.

Yes finally block accepts return statement ..

its executes every time either we have return statement in try , or in catch block..

but its doesn't executes if try, catch blocks have System.exit(0); statement..

Code
span style="color: #0000ff;">"return value""c  value ""Exception caught as .....""Finally Block.........");


     // System.exit(0);

just check out this program
try{
return 1;
}
catch(Exception e){
return 2;
}
finally{
return 3;
}


it will return 3 .. even in the error conditions also......
