Exception handling helps us catch or identify abnormal scenarios in our code and handle them appropriately instead of throwing up a random error on the front-end (User Interface) of the application.
Exception handling allows developers to detect errors easily without writing special code to test return values. Even better, it lets us keep exception-handling code cleanly separated from the exception-generating code. It also lets us use the same exception-handling code to deal with a range of possible exceptions
no, because catch is used to handle exceptions which are generated from try block
We can create a exception sub class by extending Exception class available in java
java exception
In Java there are two main types of Exceptions. * Checked Exceptions - The ones that can be checked & handled in our code. Ex: I/O Exception, SQL Exception etc. In most cases, the compiler itself forces us to catch & handle these exceptions * Un-checked Exceptions - The ones that we cannot & should not handle in our code. Ex. Null Pointer Exception The java.lang.Throwable is the super class of all errors and exceptions in Java. Only objects of this class can be thrown & caught and handled by try-catch blocks. Ex: try { ..... ..... } catch (Exception e){ ... } finally { ... }
The important keywords used in Java with respect to Exception Handling are: a. Throw - The "throw" keyword is used to throw exceptions from inside a method b. Throws - The "throws" keyword is used to signify the fact that the code contents within the current method may be throwing an exception and the calling method must handle them appropriately
To handle the exceptions in large programs
The presence of the keywords "throws exception" on a method signature means that, the method may throw an exception whhich it does not handle. It also means that the method that is calling or invoking it has to handle such exceptions. If the calling method does not handle that exception it would have to in turn use the same "throws exception" clause and throw it to its parent method.
Exception handling should be used in Java in all cases where you as a programmer suspect that your code might throw some exceptions or create errors that might look ugly when a user is using the application. In such cases you use exception handling to catch and handle the exception and exit gracefully. You use the try - catch block in Java for exception handling.

java exception
It is called an exception. There are two ways of handling exceptions inside java methods. The method can have a try catch block and handle the error/exception inside the method. Or The method can throw the exception under the assumption that the calling method would have the code to handle the exception that is thrown by this method

A Catch block is part of the exception handling mechanism in Java. It is used along with the try block. Ex: try { ... } catch (Exception e) { ... } The catch block is used to catch & handle the exception that gets thrown in the try block.

Exception handling is largely the same for both. The only real difference is that C++ has no 'finally' clause which always executes whether an exception occurs or not. Another difference is that Java throws exceptions and errors, but errors cannot be handled since programs cannot handle errors -- such as the JVM out of memory error.
