catch (Exception parameter)

[frantisek nejedly]

Hi,
it's not clear to me what the parameter is and how to use it.
Could you tell me please?
Thank you.

The best would be to read at least some basics on exceptions, like this

[frantisek nejedly]

I've read that before posting the question. I'm going there once again. Thank you.

The parameter is a name of reference variable which refers to the object of type Exception created when the Exception is thrown.

Am I right?

The parameter is a reference to a type of Exception which you expect to catch. This usually applies to checked Exceptions where you know what sort of Exception to expect.

I see, thank you.

You're welcome.
