Answer 1

I want to write a finally block but don't want to execute it.You have several options.
- don't enter into the try block associated with your finally block
- embed the content of the finally block with "if (false) { ... }" - well the finally block is executed, but the contents of the if block is not
- throw an exception right at the start of the finally block - almost the same as above
- investigate if this is of any use for your objective: "An application should not normally try to catch ThreadDeath unless it must do some extraordinary cleanup operation (note that the throwing of ThreadDeath causes finally clauses of try statements to be executed before the thread officially dies). If a catch clause catches a ThreadDeath object, it is important to rethrow the object so that the thread actually dies." from: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/Thread.html#stop()
