Java run code only if no exception is thrown in try and catch block?

Question

How do I make it so the code runs only if there was no exception thrown?

With finally code runs whether there was an exception or not.

try {    //do something } catch (Exception e) {} //do something only if nothing was thrown 

Answer 1

Here are two ways:

try {     somethingThatMayThrowAnException();     somethingElseAfterwards(); } catch (...) {     ... } 

Or if you want your second block of code to be outside the try block:

boolean success = false; try {     somethingThatMayThrowAnException();     success = true; } catch (...) {     ... } if (success) {     somethingElseAfterwards(); } 

You could also put the if statement in a finally block, but there is not enough information in your question to tell if that would be preferable or not.
