An exception interrupts the flow of the program and terminates it abnormally. The termination of the program abnormally is not recommended, and for that, we need to handle these exceptions, Java provides Java.lang.Exception class for handling the exceptions which inherit the properties and methods of Object and Throwable class Methods of java.lang. Throwable class addSuppressed(, _fillinStackTrace), -getCauseQ, —_getLocalizedMessage(, _getMessage(), getStackTrace)), getSuppressedQ,, initCause(, printStackTraceQ, printStackTrace0, printStackTrace), setStackTrace(), and toString(). Methods of java.lang.Object class clone(), equals0, finalize, getClass(), hashCode(), notify(), notifyAll, and wait0. The Exception class has a set of sub-classes for handling different types of exceptions such as IOException, NotBoundException, and NotOwnerException etc. All the subclasses of the Exception class are in the form of Throwable that indicates the conditions that an application wants to catch The Exception class provides the following 5 constructors 1. public Exception() case eM one) hitpstwwnjavatpoint.comvexcention-class-injava ana.2110422, 21:07 Exceplio Class in Java -Javapoint The public Exception () construct an exception with a null detail message. The cause can be subsequently initialized by calling Throwable.initCause(Java.lang.Throwable). It is a default constructor and takes no parameters for message and Throwable cause. 2. public Exception(String message) The public Exception( String message) construct a new exception with the given detailed message. Just like the default constructor, the cause can be subsequently initialized by calling Throwable.initCause(Java.lang.Throwable). It is a parameterized constructor which takes a parameter of type String for detail message. The detail message is saved so that the Throwable.getMessage() method can retrieve it. Parameters a, message It is of type string for the error message or detail message. 3. public Exception(String message, Throwable cause) It is another variation of the Exception () constructor, which takes two parameters, i.e., message and cause. It constructs a new exception with the given detailed message and cause. The message associated with the cause will not be automatically included in the exception detail message, Parameters a, message Itis of type string for the error message or detail message. b, cause The cause is saved so that the Throwable.getCause() method can retrieve it. The null value defines that the cause is nonexistent or unknown. 4. public Exception(Throwable cause) It is another variation of the Exception () constructor, which takes only a single parameter, ie, cause, The constructor creates an Exception with the given cause and the detailed message of the cause. | detail message = (caus ull ? null : cause.toString0) It is mainly used for the exceptions, which are more than wrappers for other throwables. case eM one) hitpstwwnjavatpoint.comvexcention-class-injava ana2104/22, 21:07 Exception Class in Java -Javatpoint a. cause The cause is saved so that the Throwable.getCause() method can retrieve it. The null value defines that the cause is nonexistent or unknown. 5. protected Exception(String message, Throwable cause, Boolean enableSuppression, Boolean writableStackTrace) It is a little different from the other constructors. It is also a parameterized constructor and takes 4 parameters, ie, message, cause, enableSuppression, and writableStackTrace. It creates an exception with the specified parameters. Parameters a. message Itis a detailed message. b. cause The cause is saved so that the Throwable.getCause() method can retrieve it. The null value defines that the cause is nonexistent or unknown. ¢. enableSuppre It is a Boolean value that defines whether the suppression is enabled or not. d. writableStackTrace Itis a Boolean value that defines whether the stack trace is writable or not. Create custom exceptions using the Exception class We have a series of predefined exceptions in Java. Many times, we need to create our own Exception for handling errors. We used the custom exception for customizing the exceptions as per the user need. Let's take some examples of the Exception class and understand how we can create our own Exception in Java CustomExceptionExamplet ; // import required classes and packages package javaTpoint Microsoftlava; import java.util.Scanner, InvalidAgeException by extending Exception class for create invalid age excepti Hitps:twwnjavatpoint.convexcention class-injava ana2104/22, 21:07 Exception Class in Java -Javatpoint @SuppressWarnings("serial") class InvalidAgeException extends Exception { // parameterized constructor that accepts only detail message public InvalidAgeException (String message) { //calling parent Exception class constructor super(message); // create CustomException€xamplet class that uses custom exception InvalidAgeException public class CustomExce u nExample1 // create method checkEligibility() to check whether the given is valid for exam or not static void checkElig fi // use conditional statement to check age iffage < 18) // we throw InvalidAgeException when the age is less than 18 ity (int age) throws InvalidAgeException throw new InvalidAgeException("You are not eligible for the exam.

We call the checkEligibility() method by passing the user input to it. The checkEligibility() method checks whether the given age is greater than 18 or not because a user having age 18+ is eligible for the exam. The InvalidAgeException when it finds an age less than 18.
