    Study Notes

    Exception Handling in Java

    • Exceptions are generated by the Java runtime environment or by user-defined methods during execution.
    • An exception in Java is an event that disrupts the normal flow of the program's execution.
    • When an exception is thrown, the current execution path is interrupted and the Java runtime searches for a matching exception handler.
    • A major subclass of Exception that should not be caught by user programs is RuntimeException.
    • The catch clause within a try-catch block is used to define how an application will respond to a specific exception.

    Wrapper Classes

    • The Integer constructor with int parameter for creating objects of type wrappers is deprecated.
    • The return type of the static method parseFloat() is float.
    • The valueOf() method in wrapper classes efficiently converts a string to an object of its respective wrapper type.
    • Autoboxing is the automatic conversion that the Java compiler makes between the primitive types and their corresponding object wrapper classes.
    • A type wrapper in Java encapsulates primitive types as objects.
    • Encapsulating a primitive value within an object is called boxing.

    Exception Types and Handling

    • The Exception class provides a base for all exceptions that can be caught.
    • The exceptions designed to signal error conditions that a program can catch are user-defined types of exceptions.
    • The behavior of a throw statement is to explicitly throw an exception from a method or block of code.
    • The throws clause specifies which exceptions may be thrown by a method.
    • The finally block executes after a try-catch block, regardless of whether an exception was thrown or caught.

    Error Conditions

    • When attempting to divide by zero, the Java runtime system throws an ArithmeticException.
    • The effectiveness of multiple catch clauses allows for handling different exceptions separately within one try block.

    Further Notes

    • The default access level for a member without an explicit declaration is package-private.
    • Not all mentioned types are primitive; for instance, Wrapper classes are not primitive types.
    • The output of the provided code snippet with Integer iOb = 100; int i = iOb; will print "100 100" since iOb is autoboxed and unboxed properly.
    • Packages in Java group related classes, providing better organization and access control for the code.
    • Custom exception types allow developers to define specific exceptions relevant to their applications, promoting clearer error handling.
