handle exception in finally

This blog discuss the code at finally can affect code at catch block - http://mult.ifario.us/articles/2006/07/26/java-brain-teaser

ExternalResource resource = resourceManager.open();
Throwable e1 = null;
try {
    // Use the resource (stream, db connection, ...)
} catch (Throwable e) {
    e1 = e;
} finally {
    try {
        resource.close();
        if (e1 != null) throw e1;
    } catch (Throwable e2) {
        // Pretend e2 doesn't already have a cause...
        if (e1 != null) e2.initCause(e1);
        throw e2;
    }
}

or this, can be better looking

try {
  InputStream is = new FileOutputStream("hello.txt");
  try {
    is.write("hello");
  finally {
    is.close();
  }
} catch (IOException e) {
  e.printStrackTrace();
}
