• Constructor Details

  • Error

    public Error()
    Constructs a new error with null as its detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to Throwable.initCause(java.lang.Throwable).

  • Error

    public Error​(String message)
    Constructs a new error with the specified detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to Throwable.initCause(java.lang.Throwable).

    Parameters:

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

  • Error

    public Error​(String message, Throwable cause)
    Constructs a new error with the specified detail message and cause.

    Note that the detail message associated with cause is not automatically incorporated in this error's detail message.

    Parameters:

    message - the detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method).

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

    Since:

    1.4

  • Error

    public Error​(Throwable cause)
    Constructs a new error 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 errors that are little more than wrappers for other throwables.

    Parameters:

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

    Since:

    1.4

  • Error

    protected Error​(String message, Throwable cause, boolean enableSuppression, boolean writableStackTrace)
    Constructs a new error with the specified detail message, cause, suppression enabled or disabled, and writable stack trace enabled or disabled.

    Parameters:

    message - the detail message.

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

    enableSuppression - whether or not suppression is enabled or disabled

    writableStackTrace - whether or not the stack trace should be writable

    Since:

    1.7
