Basically I’ve heard that certain conditions will cause .NET to blow past the finally block. Does anyone know what those conditions are?
Two possibilities:
The finally block will not be executed when there’s a
StackOverflowExceptionsince there’s no room on the stack to even execute any more code. It will also not be called when there’s anExecutionEngineException, which may arise from a call toEnvironment.FailFast().
