Creating an exception object and handing it to the runtime system is called throwing an exception. 3 Thursday, August 9, 12 What is an exception? ✦ When an exception is thrown, the runtime system attempts to find something to handle it. ✦ A set of possible “somethings” is the ordered list of methods that had been called to get to the method where the error occurred. ✦ This list of methods is known as call stack. 4 Thursday, August 9, 12 What is an exception? ✦ The runtime system searches the call stack for a method that can handle the exception. ✦ ✦ ✦ The block of code that handles the exception is called exception handler. The type of exception object thrown must match the type that can be handled by the handler. When the handler is found, the runtime passes the exception to the handler. 5 Thursday, August 9, .
