Class Exception

    • Constructor Detail

      • Exception

        public Exception()
        Constructs a new exception with null as its detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to Throwable.initCause(java.lang.Throwable).
      • Exception

        public Exception​(String message)
        Constructs a new exception with the specified detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to Throwable.initCause(java.lang.Throwable).
        Parameters:
        message - the detail message. The detail message is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method.
      • Exception

        public Exception​(String message,
                         Throwable cause)
        Constructs a new exception with the specified detail message and cause.

        Note that the detail message associated with cause is not automatically incorporated in this exception's detail message.

        Parameters:
        message - the detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method).
        cause - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getCause() method). (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

      • Exception

        public Exception​(Throwable cause)
        Constructs a new exception with the specified cause and a detail message of (cause==null ? null : cause.toString()) (which typically contains the class and detail message of cause). This constructor is useful for exceptions that are little more than wrappers for other throwables (for example, PrivilegedActionException).
        Parameters:
        cause - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getCause() method). (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

      • Exception

        protected Exception​(String message,
                            Throwable cause,
                            boolean enableSuppression,
                            boolean writableStackTrace)
        Constructs a new exception with the specified detail message, cause, suppression enabled or disabled, and writable stack trace enabled or disabled.
        Parameters:
        message - the detail message.
        cause - the cause. (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)
        enableSuppression - whether or not suppression is enabled or disabled
        writableStackTrace - whether or not the stack trace should be writable
