The analyzer has detected an error related to overriding the return value from a try/catch block within a finally block.
The example:
try {
return getResponse(....);
} catch (Exception e) {
....
return -1;
} finally {
....
return 0; // <=
}When the return statement is executed from a try or catch block, the control flow enters the finally block before exiting the method and executes all the statements within it.

The fixed code may look as follows:

answer = getResponse(....);
....
} catch (Exception e) {
....
answer = -1;
} finally {
....
return answer;
}This diagnostic rule is classified as:
