Hi:
According to the help file, "The __finally keyword specifies actions that
should be taken regardless of how the flow within the preceding __try
exits.". But in the example below the __finally block will not execute if we
get to return statement. Any ideas? Could this be a builder bug?
if the return is within the first try and not the nested one it works fine.
I have tried this in BCB5 Ent. and BCB6 Ent.
try
{
   try
   {
      /* Do something */
      if (/* some condition */)
         return;
      /* Do something */
   }
   catch (...)
   {
      /* Do something */
   }
}
__finally
{
    /* Do something */
}
