Cucumber-JUnit, is there a way to control the order in which @before and @after tags run

I have two @after tags, @close-browser and @screenshot.So, right now when I use both tags for feature file it is first executing @close-browser and It fails in executing after method for @screenshot. Is there a way that I can tell cucumber to run @screenshot after method first?

There is an 'order' argument that you can pass to @Before and @After to control order of execution:

@Before( order = 5 )
public void foo() {}

@After( order = 500 )
public void bar() {}

Before hooks are run in ascending order (lowest order number first), while After hooks are run in descending order (hightest order number first).

The screenshot should be taken in one of the @After annotated methods. Like this:

@After
public void finish(Scenario scenario) {
    try {
        byte[] screenshot =
        helper.getWebDriver().getScreenshotAs(OutputType.BYTES);
        scenario.embed(screenshot, "image/png");
    } catch (WebDriverException somePlatformsDontSupportScreenshots) {

    System.err.println(somePlatformsDontSupportScreenshots.getMessage());
    }
    finally {
        helper.getWebDriver().close();
    }
}
