Exception Handling

Exception: Any Code that disturb the normal flow of the program is called Exception.

Exception Handling:
   It is a mechanism to handle compile and run time Exceptions. try catch finally throw and throws are the keywords are used to handle the Exceptions in your source code

 Exception Hierarchy:


Advantage of Exception Handling:
It will not terminate in the middle or crash your application. It will run your application smoothly.

 Exception Classes are categorise mainly into two parts:
  1. Checked Exception: It is also called compile time Exception. Except Error and RuntimeException all other Exception classes are Checked Exception
  2. Unchecked Exception: It is also called run time Exception. RuntimeException and its subclasses are Unchecked Exception.
Various ways to use try catch and finally blocks:
  1. try-catch block
    try {
        //Code where there is chance to get any Exception
    } catch(ExceptionClassName e){
        //Handle the ExceptionClassName Code
    }

    e.g.
    package com.java.exception;

    public class ExceptionHandling {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            try {
                System.out.println("main Method is started");
                System.out.println(5/0);
            } catch (ArithmeticException e) {
                System.out.println(e.getClass());
                System.out.println("Detail About Exception is: " + e.getMessage());
            }
            System.out.println("main method is completed");
        }
    }

    Output:
    main Method is started
    class java.lang.ArithmeticException
    Detail About Exception is: / by zero
    main method is completed
  2. try-finally block
    try {
        //Code where there is chance to get any Exception
    } finally {
        //Write the closing database and IO file stream class Code
    }

    e.g.
    package com.java.exception;

    public class TryFinally {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            System.out.println("Main method stated");
            try {
                TryFinally obj = null;
                System.out.println(obj.hashCode());
            } finally {
                System.out.println("finally block will execute every time if exception occurs or not");
            }
            System.out.println("Main method terminated");
        }
    }

    Output:
    Main method stated
    finally block will execute every time if exception occurs or not
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
                 at com.java.exception.TryFinally.main(TryFinally.java:8)
  3. try with multiple catch block
    try {
        //Code where there is chance to get any Exception
    } catch(MostSpecificException1 e){
        //Handle the MostSpecificException1 Code
    } catch(MostSpecificException2 e){
        //Handle the MostSpecificException2 Code
    } catch(MostSpecificException3 e){
        //Handle the MostSpecificException3 Code
    } catch(Exception e){
        //Handle the Exception Code
    } 

    e.g.
    package com.java.exception;

    public class TryMultipleCatch {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            System.out.println("Main method stated");
            try {
                TryMultipleCatch obj = null;   //It will throw NullPointerException
                obj = new TryMultipleCatch();
                System.out.println("Hash Code value for Object of class TryMultipleCatch 'obj' is " + obj.hashCode());
                int num = Integer.parseInt("abc", 16);
                //num = Integer.parseInt("abc");   //It will throw NumberFormatException
                System.out.println("Value in decimal format of \"abc\" is " + num);
                System.out.println(10 / 0);
                Thread.sleep(5000);  //if any thread has interrupted the current thread
            } catch (NullPointerException e) {
                System.out.println(e.getLocalizedMessage());
            } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
                System.out.println("Enter string value in correct format");
            } catch (ArithmeticException e) {
                System.out.println(e.getClass() + " has occured");
            } catch (Exception e) {
                System.out.println("Some other Exception has occured" + e.getClass());
            }
            System.out.println("Main method terminated");
        }
    }

    Output:
    Main method stated
    Hash Code value for Object of class TryMultipleCatch 'obj' is 366712642
    Value in decimal format of "abc" is 2748
    class java.lang.ArithmeticException has occured
    Main method terminated
  4. try catch and finally block
    try {
        //Code where there is chance to get any Exception
    } catch(Exception e){
        //Handle the Exception Code
    } finally {
        //Write the closing database and IO file stream class Code
    }

    e.g.
    package com.java.exception;

    public class TryCatchFinally {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            System.out.println("main Method is started");
            try {
                System.out.println(5/0);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                System.out.println(e.getClass() + " has occured");
            } finally {
                System.out.println("finally block will execute every time if exception occurs or not");
            }
            System.out.println("main method is completed");
        }
    }

    Output:
    main Method is started
    class java.lang.ArithmeticException has occured
    finally block will execute every time if exception occurs or not
    main method is completed
  5. Nested try-catch block
    try {
        //Code where there is chance to get any Exception
        try {
            //Code where there is chance to get any Exception
        } catch(ExceptionClass e) {
            //Handle the ExceptionClass Code
        }
    } catch(ExceptionClassName e){
        //Handle the ExceptionClassName Code
    }

    e.g.
    package com.java.exception;

    public class NestedTryCatch {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            System.out.println("main Method is started");
            try {
                try {
                    System.out.println(5/0);
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    System.out.println("Nested try catch");
                    throw e;
                }
            } catch (ArithmeticException e) {
                System.out.println(e.getClass());
                System.out.println("Detail About Exception is: " + e.getMessage());
            }
            System.out.println("main method is completed");
        }
    }

    Output:
    main Method is started
    Nested try catch
    class java.lang.ArithmeticException
    Detail About Exception is: / by zero
    main method is completed
throw: 
It is used to explicitly throw an Exception when some condition is true.
e.g.
throw new ArithmeticException();

throws: 
It is used to declare the Exception after method signature.
e.g. 
void method() throws ArithmeticException, NullPointerException, IOException {
      //Code inside method that might throw above declared Exceptions
}

What is difference between throw and throws?
throw throws
It is used to explicitly throw an Exception when some condition is true. It is used to declare the Exception after method signature.
It is followed by object It is followed by Exception class or classes
It is used inside methods It is used after method signature
You cannot throw multiple exception object You can declare multiple exception classes


Custom Exception:
You can create your own exception class by extending Exception or its subclasses.
e.g.
package com.java.exception;

class BankLoanException extends ArithmeticException {
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    public BankLoanException(String text){
            super(text);
    }
}

public class BankLoan {
    double amount;
    
    public BankLoan(double amount) {
        this.amount = amount;
    }

    public void isSanction(double amount){
        if(amount <= 100000){
            throw new BankLoanException(" Loan of " + amount + " is not sanction");
        } else {
            System.out.println("Loan of " + amount + " is sanction");
        }
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        BankLoan loan = null;
        try{
            loan = new BankLoan(200000);
            loan.isSanction(loan.amount);
            loan = new BankLoan(90000);
            loan.isSanction(loan.amount);
        } catch (BankLoanException e) {
            System.out.println(e.getClass() + e.getMessage());
        }
    }
}

Output:
Loan of 200000.0 is sanction
class com.java.exception.BankLoanException Loan of 90000.0 is not sanction
