Displaying the Exception Message - Java Object Oriented Design

Java examples for Object Oriented Design:Exception

Introduction

To display an error message, use exception objects' methods.

Method	Description
String getMessage()	A text message that describes the error.
void printStackTrace()	Prints the stack trace to the standard error stream.
String toString()	Returns a description of the exception.

The following example shows how you might print the message for an exception in a catch block:

try
{
      int c = a / b;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
      System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
