Interface Summary Interface Description Appendable An object to whichcharsequences and values can be appended.AutoCloseable A resource that must be closed when it is no longer needed.CharSequence Cloneable A class implements theCloneableinterface to indicate to theObject.clone()method that it is legal for that method to make a field-for-field copy of instances of that class.Comparable<T> Iterable<T> Implementing this interface allows an object to be the target of the "foreach" statement.Readable This interface is only defined for hierarchy compatibility.Runnable TheRunnableinterface should be implemented by any class whose instances are intended to be executed by a thread.Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler Interface for handlers invoked when aThreadabruptly terminates due to an uncaught exception. -
Class Summary Class Description Boolean The Boolean class wraps a value of the primitive typebooleanin an object.Byte TheByteclass wraps a value of primitive typebytein an object.Character TheCharacterclass wraps a value of the primitive typecharin an object.Class<T> Instances of the classClassrepresent classes and interfaces in a running Java application.Double TheDoubleclass wraps a value of the primitive typedoublein an object.Enum<E extends Enum<E>> This is the common base class of all Java language enumeration types.Float TheFloatclass wraps a value of primitive typefloatin an object.Integer TheIntegerclass wraps a value of the primitive typeintin an object.Long TheLongclass wraps a value of the primitive typelongin an object.Math Number The abstract classNumberis the superclass of classesBigDecimal,BigInteger,Byte,Double,Float,Integer,Long, andShort.Object ClassObjectis the root of the class hierarchy.Package Packagerepresent a Java package.Runtime Every Java application has a single instance of classRuntimethat allows the application to interface with the environment in which the application is running.RuntimePermission SecurityManager The security manager is a class that allows applications to implement a security policy.Short TheShortclass wraps a value of primitive typeshortin an object.StackTraceElement An element in a stack trace.String StringBuffer A thread-safe, mutable sequence of characters.StringBuilder A mutable sequence of characters.System TheSystemclass contains several useful class fields and methods.Thread A thread is a thread of execution in a program.Throwable TheThrowableclass is the superclass of all errors and exceptions in the Java language. -
Enum Summary Enum Description Thread.State A thread state. -
Exception Summary Exception Description ArithmeticException Thrown when an exceptional arithmetic condition has occurred.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException Thrown to indicate that an array has been accessed with an illegal index.ArrayStoreException Thrown to indicate that an attempt has been made to store the wrong type of object into an array of objects.ClassCastException Thrown to indicate that the code has attempted to cast an object to a subclass of which it is not an instance.ClassNotFoundException Thrown when an application tries to load in a class through its string name using: TheforNamemethod in classClass.CloneNotSupportedException Exception The classExceptionand its subclasses are a form ofThrowablethat indicates conditions that a reasonable application might want to catch.IllegalAccessException An IllegalAccessException is thrown when an application tries to reflectively create an instance (other than an array), set or get a field, or invoke a method, but the currently executing method does not have access to the definition of the specified class, field, method or constructor.IllegalArgumentException Thrown to indicate that a method has been passed an illegal or inappropriate argument.IllegalMonitorStateException Thrown to indicate that a thread has attempted to wait on an object's monitor or to notify other threads waiting on an object's monitor without owning the specified monitor.IllegalStateException Signals that a method has been invoked at an illegal or inappropriate time.IllegalThreadStateException Thrown to indicate that a thread is not in an appropriate state for the requested operation.IndexOutOfBoundsException Thrown to indicate that an index of some sort (such as to an array, to a string, or to a vector) is out of range.InstantiationException Thrown when an application tries to create an instance of a class using thenewInstancemethod in classClass, but the specified class object cannot be instantiated.InterruptedException Thrown when a thread is waiting, sleeping, or otherwise occupied, and the thread is interrupted, either before or during the activity.NegativeArraySizeException Thrown if an application tries to create an array with negative size.NoSuchFieldException Signals that the class doesn't have a field of a specified name.NoSuchMethodException Thrown when a particular method cannot be found.NullPointerException Thrown when an application attempts to usenullin a case where an object is required.NumberFormatException Thrown to indicate that the application has attempted to convert a string to one of the numeric types, but that the string does not have the appropriate format.ReflectiveOperationException Common superclass of exceptions thrown by reflective operations in core reflection.RuntimeException RuntimeExceptionis the superclass of those exceptions that can be thrown during the normal operation of the Java Virtual Machine.SecurityException Thrown by the security manager to indicate a security violation.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException Thrown byStringmethods to indicate that an index is either negative or greater than the size of the string.UnsupportedOperationException Thrown to indicate that the requested operation is not supported. -
Error Summary Error Description AbstractMethodError Thrown when an application tries to call an abstract method.AssertionError Thrown to indicate that an assertion has failed.ClassCircularityError Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine detects a circularity in the superclass hierarchy of a class being loaded.ClassFormatError Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine attempts to read a class file and determines that the file is malformed or otherwise cannot be interpreted as a class file.Error AnErroris a subclass ofThrowablethat indicates serious problems that a reasonable application should not try to catch.ExceptionInInitializerError Signals that an unexpected exception has occurred in a static initializer.IllegalAccessError Thrown if an application attempts to access or modify a field, or to call a method that it does not have access to.IncompatibleClassChangeError Thrown when an incompatible class change has occurred to some class definition.InstantiationError Thrown when an application tries to use the Javanewconstruct to instantiate an abstract class or an interface.InternalError Thrown to indicate some unexpected internal error has occurred in the Java Virtual Machine.LinkageError Subclasses ofLinkageErrorindicate that a class has some dependency on another class; however, the latter class has incompatibly changed after the compilation of the former class.NoClassDefFoundError Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine or aClassLoaderinstance tries to load in the definition of a class (as part of a normal method call or as part of creating a new instance using thenewexpression) and no definition of the class could be found.NoSuchFieldError Thrown if an application tries to access or modify a specified field of an object, and that object no longer has that field.NoSuchMethodError Thrown if an application tries to call a specified method of a class (either static or instance), and that class no longer has a definition of that method.OutOfMemoryError Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine cannot allocate an object because it is out of memory, and no more memory could be made available by the garbage collector.StackOverflowError Thrown when a stack overflow occurs because an application recurses too deeply.UnknownError Thrown when an unknown but serious exception has occurred in the Java Virtual Machine.UnsatisfiedLinkError Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine cannot find an appropriate native-language definition of a method declarednative.UnsupportedClassVersionError Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine attempts to read a class file and determines that the major and minor version numbers in the file are not supported.VerifyError Thrown when the "verifier" detects that a class file, though well formed, contains some sort of internal inconsistency or security problem.VirtualMachineError Thrown to indicate that the Java Virtual Machine is broken or has run out of resources necessary for it to continue operating. -
Annotation Types Summary Annotation Type Description Deprecated A program element annotated @Deprecated is one that programmers are discouraged from using, typically because it is dangerous, or because a better alternative exists.Override Indicates that a method declaration is intended to override a method declaration in a supertype.SafeVarargs A programmer assertion that the body of the annotated method or constructor does not perform potentially unsafe operations on its varargs parameter.SuppressWarnings Indicates that the named compiler warnings should be suppressed in the annotated element (and in all program elements contained in the annotated element).
