Known Direct Subclasses

AnnotationFormatError, AssertionError, AssertionFailedError, CoderMalfunctionError, FactoryConfigurationError, IOError, LinkageError, ServiceConfigurationError, ThreadDeath, TransformerFactoryConfigurationError, VirtualMachineError

Known Indirect Subclasses

AbstractMethodError	Thrown by the virtual machine when an abstract method is called.
ClassCircularityError	Thrown when the virtual machine notices that an attempt is made to load a class which would directly or indirectly inherit from one of its subclasses.
ClassFormatError	Thrown by a class loader when a class file has an illegal format or if the data that it contains can not be interpreted as a class.
ComparisonFailure	Thrown when an assert equals for Strings failed.
ExceptionInInitializerError	Thrown when an exception occurs during class initialization.
GenericSignatureFormatError	Indicates that a malformed signature has been encountered via a reflective method.
IllegalAccessError	Thrown when the virtual machine notices that a program tries access a field which is not accessible from where it is referenced.
IncompatibleClassChangeError	`IncompatibleClassChangeError` is the superclass of all classes which represent errors that occur when inconsistent class files are loaded into the same running image.
InstantiationError	Thrown when the virtual machine notices that a program tries to create a new instance of a class which has no visible constructors from the location where `new` is invoked.
InternalError	Thrown when the virtual machine notices that it has gotten into an undefined state.
NoClassDefFoundError	Thrown when the virtual machine is unable to locate a class which it has been asked to load.
NoSuchFieldError	Thrown when the virtual machine notices that a program tries to reference, on a class or object, a field that does not exist.
NoSuchMethodError	Thrown when the virtual machine notices that a program tries to reference, on a class or object, a method that does not exist.
OutOfMemoryError	Thrown when a request for memory is made that can not be satisfied using the available platform resources.
StackOverflowError	Thrown when the depth of the callstack of the running program excedes some platform or virtual machine specific limit.
UnknownError	Thrown when the virtual machine must throw an error which does not match any known exceptional condition.
UnsatisfiedLinkError	Thrown when an attempt is made to invoke a native for which an implementation could not be found.
UnsupportedClassVersionError	Thrown when an attempt is made to load a class with a format version that is not supported by the virtual machine.
VerifyError	Thrown when the virtual machine notices that an attempt is made to load a class which does not pass the class verification phase.
ZipError	Thrown when an unrecoverable ZIP error has occurred.

Class Overview

Error is the superclass of all classes that represent unrecoverable errors. When errors are thrown, they should not be caught by application code.

Summary

Public Constructors
	Error() Constructs a new `Error` that includes the current stack trace.
	Error(String detailMessage) Constructs a new `Error` with the current stack trace and the specified detail message.
	Error(String detailMessage, Throwable throwable) Constructs a new `Error` with the current stack trace, the specified detail message and the specified cause.
	Error(Throwable throwable) Constructs a new `Error` with the current stack trace and the specified cause.

Inherited Methods

From class java.lang.Throwable

Throwable	fillInStackTrace() Records the stack trace from the point where this method has been called to this `Throwable`.
Throwable	getCause() Returns the cause of this `Throwable`, or `null` if there is no cause.
String	getLocalizedMessage() Returns the extra information message which was provided when this `Throwable` was created.
String	getMessage() Returns the extra information message which was provided when this `Throwable` was created.
StackTraceElement[]	getStackTrace() Returns the array of stack trace elements of this `Throwable`.
Throwable	initCause(Throwable throwable) Initializes the cause of this `Throwable`.
void	printStackTrace(PrintWriter err) Writes a printable representation of this `Throwable`'s stack trace to the specified print writer.
void	printStackTrace(PrintStream err) Writes a printable representation of this `Throwable`'s stack trace to the specified print stream.
void	printStackTrace() Writes a printable representation of this `Throwable`'s stack trace to the `System.err` stream.
void	setStackTrace(StackTraceElement[] trace) Sets the array of stack trace elements.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.

From class java.lang.Object

Object	clone() Creates and returns a copy of this `Object`.
boolean	equals(Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal.
void	finalize() Called before the object's memory is reclaimed by the VM.
final Class<? extends Object>	getClass() Returns the unique instance of `Class` that represents this object's class.
int	hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
final void	wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object.
final void	wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
final void	wait(long millis) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
