There is disagreement within many languages as to what constitutes idiomatic usage of exceptions. For example, Joshua Bloch states that Java's exceptions should only be used for exceptional situations, [2] but Kiniry observes that Java's built-in FileNotFoundException is not at all an exceptional event.

Catch ex As ExceptionType ' Handle Exception of a specified type (i.e. DivideByZeroException, OverflowException, etc.) Catch ex As Exception ' Handle Exception (catch all exceptions of a type not previously specified) Catch ' Handles anything that might be thrown, including non-CLR exceptions.
The definition of an exception is based on the observation that each procedure has a precondition, a set of circumstances for which it will terminate "normally". [1] An exception handling mechanism allows the procedure to raise an exception [2] if this precondition is violated, [1] for example if the procedure has been called on an abnormal set ...
[5] [6] [7] A line comment ends at the end of the text line. In modern languages, a line comment starts with a delimiter but some older languages designate a column at which subsequent text is considered comment. [7] Many languages support both block and line comments – using different delimiters for each.
In this C# example, all exceptions are caught regardless of type, and a new generic exception is thrown, keeping only the message of the original exception. The original stacktrace is lost, along with the type of the original exception, any exception for which the original exception was a wrapper, and any other information captured in the ...
Thinking in Java (ISBN 978-0131872486) is a book about the Java programming language, written by Bruce Eckel and first published in 1998. Prentice Hall published the 4th edition of the work in 2006. The book represents a print version of Eckel’s “Hands-on Java” seminar.
Packages are a part of a class name and they are used to group and/or distinguish named entities from other ones. Another purpose of packages is to govern code access together with access modifiers. For example, java.io.InputStream is a fully qualified class name for the class InputStream which is located in the package java.io.
Exception chaining, or exception wrapping, is an object-oriented programming technique of handling exceptions by re-throwing a caught exception after wrapping it inside a new exception. The original exception is saved as a property (such as cause) of the new exception. The idea is that a method should throw exceptions defined at the same ...
