Exception

[Mauro Trevigno]

Hi guys,

Im catching the exception and I want to print a more specific exception, its this possible?

Because if i fo to java.lang.Exception, we have a lot of subclasses:
ex.
AclNotFoundException, ActivationException, AlreadyBoundException, ApplicationException, AWTException, BackingStoreException, BadLocationException, CertificateException.

public class Testing {

	public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
		Testing();
	}
	
	private static void Testing()throws Exception{
		System.out.println("Before IF");

		try{
			if(Math.random() > 0.5 ){
				throw new Exception();
			}

		} //Try
				catch(Exception e){
					System.out.println(e);
					throw new Exception();
				}		//catch
		 System.out.println("After IF");
		} // Testing Methd
} // Testing

Thanks.

Regards,

Yes. If no exception class from the API suits your needs, you can make your own class by extending java.lang.Exception and throw an instance of it.

if(Math.random() > 0.5 ){  
   throw new MyException();  
}

It depends what you mean by that. Your print statement will print whatever the exception really is, regardless of what you catch it as.
