Class ExceptionInInitializerError

Contents
  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable

    public class ExceptionInInitializerError
extends LinkageError
    Signals that an unexpected exception has occurred in a static initializer. An ExceptionInInitializerError is thrown to indicate that an exception occurred during evaluation of a static initializer or the initializer for a static variable.

    As of release 1.4, this exception has been retrofitted to conform to the general purpose exception-chaining mechanism. The "saved throwable object" that may be provided at construction time and accessed via the getException() method is now known as the cause, and may be accessed via the Throwable.getCause() method, as well as the aforementioned "legacy method."

    Since:
    JDK1.1

    • Method Detail

      • getException

        public Throwable getException()
        Returns the exception that occurred during a static initialization that caused this error to be created.

        This method predates the general-purpose exception chaining facility. The Throwable.getCause() method is now the preferred means of obtaining this information.

        Returns:
        the saved throwable object of this ExceptionInInitializerError, or null if this ExceptionInInitializerError has no saved throwable object.

      • getCause

        public Throwable getCause()
        Returns the cause of this error (the exception that occurred during a static initialization that caused this error to be created).
        Overrides:
        getCause in class Throwable
        Returns:
        the cause of this error or null if the cause is nonexistent or unknown.
        Since:
        1.4
