1Z0-829 Handling Exceptions Practice Question
Which TWO statements about try-with-resources are true? (Choose two.)
⚠ Common exam trap
Watch out — candidates often assume resources close in declaration order (A) or that only one resource is allowed (C), but the exam tests the reverse close order and the ability to manage multiple resources, as well as the precise timing of resource closure relative to catch blocks.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
If both the try block and the close method throw exceptions, the close exception is suppressed.
When both the try block and the close method throw exceptions, the exception from the close method is suppressed and added to the suppressed exceptions list of the exception thrown by the try block. This behavior is defined by the try-with-resources specification in Java, ensuring that the primary exception is not masked by resource-closing exceptions.
