public class RuntimeException
extends Exception

RuntimeException is the superclass of those exceptions that can be thrown during the normal operation of the Java Virtual Machine.

RuntimeException and its subclasses are unchecked exceptions. Unchecked exceptions do not need to be declared in a method or constructor's throws clause if they can be thrown by the execution of the method or constructor and propagate outside the method or constructor boundary.

11.2 Compile-Time Checking of Exceptions

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Modifier	Constructor	Description
	RuntimeException()	Constructs a new runtime exception with null as its detail message.
	RuntimeException(String message)	Constructs a new runtime exception with the specified detail message.
	RuntimeException(String message, Throwable cause)	Constructs a new runtime exception with the specified detail message and cause.
protected	RuntimeException(String message, Throwable cause, boolean enableSuppression, boolean writableStackTrace)	Constructs a new runtime exception with the specified detail message, cause, suppression enabled or disabled, and writable stack trace enabled or disabled.
	RuntimeException(Throwable cause)	Constructs a new runtime exception with the specified cause and a detail message of (cause==null ? null : cause.toString()) (which typically contains the class and detail message of cause).

Method Summary

Methods declared in class Throwable

addSuppressed, fillInStackTrace, getCause, getLocalizedMessage, getMessage, getStackTrace, getSuppressed, initCause, printStackTrace, printStackTrace, printStackTrace, setStackTrace, toString

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
final void	addSuppressed(Throwable exception)	The specified exception is going to be suppressed in order to give priority to this exception (primary exception) and to be appended to the list of suppressed exceptions.
Throwable	fillInStackTrace()	Record in the receiver a walkback from the point where this message was sent.
Throwable	getCause()	Answers the cause of this Throwable, or null if there is no cause.
String	getLocalizedMessage()	Answers the extra information message which was provided when the throwable was created.
String	getMessage()	Answers the extra information message which was provided when the throwable was created.
StackTraceElement[]	getStackTrace()	Answers an array of StackTraceElement.
final Throwable[]	getSuppressed()	Returns an array of exceptions suppressed, typically by the automatically generated code from the try-with-resources statement, in order to give priority to this exception (primary exception).
Throwable	initCause(Throwable throwable)	Initialize the cause of the receiver.
void	printStackTrace()	Outputs a printable representation of the receiver's walkback on the System.err stream.
void	printStackTrace(PrintStream err)	Outputs a printable representation of the receiver's walkback on the stream specified by the argument.
void	printStackTrace(PrintWriter err)	Outputs a printable representation of the receiver's walkback on the writer specified by the argument.
void	setStackTrace(StackTraceElement[] trace)	Sets the array of StackTraceElements.
String	toString()	Answers a string containing a concise, human-readable description of the receiver.

Methods declared in class Object

clone, equals, finalize, getClass, hashCode, notify, notifyAll, wait, wait, wait

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
protected Object	clone()	Answers a new instance of the same class as the receiver, whose slots have been filled in with the values in the slots of the receiver.
boolean	equals(Object o)	Compares the argument to the receiver, and answers true if they represent the same object using a class specific comparison.
protected void	finalize()	Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version. May cause performance issues, deadlocks and hangs.
final Class<? extends Object>	getClass()	Answers the unique instance of java.lang.Class which represents the class of the receiver.
int	hashCode()	Answers an integer hash code for the receiver.
final void	notify()	Causes one thread which is waiting on the receiver to be made ready to run.
final void	notifyAll()	Causes all threads which are waiting on the receiver to be made ready to run.
final void	wait()	Causes the thread which sent this message to be made not ready to run pending some change in the receiver (as indicated by notify or notifyAll).
final void	wait(long time)	Causes the thread which sent this message to be made not ready to run either pending some change in the receiver (as indicated by notify or notifyAll) or the expiration of the timeout.
final void	wait(long time, int frac)	Causes the thread which sent this message to be made not ready to run either pending some change in the receiver (as indicated by notify or notifyAll) or the expiration of the timeout.

Constructor Details

RuntimeException

public RuntimeException()

Constructs a new runtime exception with null as its detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to Throwable.initCause(Throwable).

RuntimeException

public RuntimeException(String message)

Constructs a new runtime exception with the specified detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to Throwable.initCause(Throwable).

Parameters:

message - the detail message. The detail message is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method.

RuntimeException

public RuntimeException(String message,
 Throwable cause)

Constructs a new runtime exception with the specified detail message and cause.

Note that the detail message associated with cause is not automatically incorporated in this runtime exception's detail message.

Parameters:

message - the detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method).

cause - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getCause() method). (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

Since:

1.4

RuntimeException

public RuntimeException(Throwable cause)

Constructs a new runtime exception with the specified cause and a detail message of (cause==null ? null : cause.toString()) (which typically contains the class and detail message of cause). This constructor is useful for runtime exceptions that are little more than wrappers for other throwables.

Parameters:

cause - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getCause() method). (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

Since:

1.4

RuntimeException

protected RuntimeException(String message,
 Throwable cause,
 boolean enableSuppression,
 boolean writableStackTrace)

Constructs a new runtime exception with the specified detail message, cause, suppression enabled or disabled, and writable stack trace enabled or disabled.

Parameters:

message - the detail message.

cause - the cause. (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

enableSuppression - whether or not suppression is enabled or disabled

writableStackTrace - whether or not the stack trace should be writable

Since:

1.7
