FindBugs - finalize error

I have finalize method in my project(I know finalize should not be used, but can not change logic now.) FindBugs gives error that super.finalize() should be called, but if that is done and Throwable is catched (which should not be done either), FindBugs gives another error, stating Throwable should not be catched.

I can not throw Throwable either, application may suffer.

Is there anyway out?

You have to throw Throwable in your finalize method. Here is the code of the method you need:

@Override
protected void finalize() throws Throwable
    try {
        super.finalize();
    } finally {
        ...
    }
}

From your telling:

try {
    super.finalize();
} finally {
    ... // your code
}
