# V6135\. The return value of the 'finally' block overrides return values of 'try' and 'catch' blocks\.

The analyzer has detected an error related to overriding the return value from a try/catch block within a finally block\.

The example:

```cpp
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\. As a result, the last executed statement is `return` from the `finally` block, which overrides the return value from the `try` or `catch` block\.

The fixed code may look as follows:

```cpp
int answer = 0;
try {
  answer = getResponse(....); 
  ....
} catch (Exception e) {
  ....
  answer = -1; 
} finally {
  .... 
  return answer;
}
```
