Does a finally block always run?

Is there any condition where finally might not run in java? Thanks.

from the Sun Tutorials

Note: If the JVM exits while the try or catch code is being executed, then the finally block may not execute. Likewise, if the thread executing the try or catch code is interrupted or killed, the finally block may not execute even though the application as a whole continues.

I don't know of any other ways the finally block wouldn't execute...

System.exit shuts down the Virtual Machine.

Terminates the currently running Java Virtual Machine. The argument serves as a status code; by convention, a nonzero status code indicates abnormal termination.

This method calls the exit method in class Runtime. This method never returns normally.

    try {
        System.out.println("hello");
        System.exit(0);
    }
    finally {
        System.out.println("bye");
    } // try-finally

"bye" does not print out in above code.
