error and exception handling in Java code example
Example 1: exception in java
In java exception is an object. Exceptions are created when an abnormal
situations are arised in our program. Exceptions can be created by JVM or
by our application code. All Exception classes are defined in java.lang.
In otherwords we can say Exception as run time error. I use try & catch blocks
to handle any exceptions in my code.
I am familiar with major checked and unchecked exceptions and
handle it accordingly to make my code execution smooth
Example 2: what is exception in java
An exception is an event, which occurs during the execution of a
program, that disrupts the normal flow of the program's instructions.
Example 3: advantages of Exception handling in java
1) Separating normal code from exception handling code to avoid abnormal
termination of program.
2) Categorizing in to different types of Exceptions so that rather than
handling all exceptions with Exception root class we can handle with specific
exceptions. It is recommended to handle exceptions with specific Exception
instead of handling with Exception root class.
3) Call stack mechanism : If a method throws an exception and it is not handled
immediately, then that exception is propagated or thrown to the caller of that
method. This propogation continues till it finds an appropriate exception
handler,if it finds handler it would be handled otherwise program terminates
abruptly.
