Class Overview

The class Exception and its subclasses are a form of Throwable that indicates conditions that a reasonable application might want to catch.

	Exception() Constructs a new exception with `null` as its detail message.
	Exception(String message) Constructs a new exception with the specified detail message.
	Exception(String message, Throwable cause) Constructs a new exception with the specified detail message and cause.
	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`).

final void	wait() Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.
final void	wait(long timeout, int nanos) Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
final void	wait(long timeout) Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.

Public Constructors

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 initCause(Throwable).

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 initCause(Throwable).

Parameters

message	the detail message. The detail message is saved for later retrieval by the `getMessage()` method.

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 `getMessage()` method).
cause	the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the `getCause()` method). (A `null` value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

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 `getCause()` method). (A `null` value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)
