異常的英文單詞是exception,字面翻譯就是“意外、例外”的意思,也就是非正常情況。事實上,異常本質上是程序上的錯誤,包括程序邏輯錯誤和系統錯誤。
一前言
java異常處理大家都不陌生,總的來說有下面兩點:
1.拋出異常:throw exception
class SimpleException{ public void a() throws Exception{ throw new Exception(); };}2.捕獲異常:
public class MyException { public static void main(String[] args){ MyException e = new MyException(); SimpleException se = new SimpleException(); try { se.a(); } catch (Exception e1) { e1.printStackTrace(); } }}class SimpleException{ public void a() throws Exception{ throw new Exception(); };}本文將在此基礎上,更加深入的談一些細節問題。
二自定義異常類
java語言為我們提供了很多異常類,但是有時候我們為了寫代碼的方便還是要自定義的去創造異常類:
class SimpleException extends Exception {};
創建好之後我們可以使用try catch捕獲它:
public class MyException { public static void main(String[] args){ MyException e = new MyException(); try { ea(); } catch (SimpleException e1) { e1.printStackTrace(); } } public void a() throws SimpleException{ throw new SimpleException(); }}class SimpleException extends Exception {};我們在MyException中定義了一個方法a(),讓它拋出SimpleException異常,然後我們在main()中調用這個方法,並使用try catch捕獲了這個異常:
SimpleException at MyException.a(MyException.java:15) at MyException.main(MyException.java:8) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:57) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:606) at com.intellij.rt.execution.application.AppMain.main(AppMain.java:144)Process finished with exit code 0
編譯執行後的結果,主要看前三行就行了。這裡著重說明幾點:
1.拋出異常類型的指定:(exception specification)
當我們需要在一個方法中拋出一個異常時,我們使用throw後加某異常類的實例,程序會在此向客戶端程序(調用這段代碼的程序)拋出對應異常並在此退出(相當於return)。另外需要注意的是,我們必須在定義該方法的時候指明異常類型,比如下面這段代碼會拋出SimpleException異常
public void a() throws SimpleException
2.拋出多個異常:
public void a() throws SimpleException,AException,BException{ throw new SimpleException(); }不同的異常類之間用逗號隔開即可,在這種情況下我們不必須throw每個異常類的實例(),但是客戶端代碼必須要catch到每個異常類:
public class MyException { public static void main(String[] args){ MyException e = new MyException(); try { ea(); } catch (SimpleException e1) { e1.printStackTrace(); } catch (BException e1) { e1.printStackTrace(); } catch (AException e1) { e1.printStackTrace(); } } public void a() throws SimpleException,AException,BException{ throw new SimpleException(); }}class SimpleException extends Exception {};class AException extends Exception{}class BException extends Exception{}三stack trace
無論是拋出異常,或者是捕獲處理異常,我們的目的是為了寫出更健壯的程序,這很大程度上依賴於java異常機制給我們提供的異常信息,而它的載體就是stack trace。
前面的代碼中我們直接使用printStackTrace()打印出異常信息,其實我們還可以使用getStackTrace()方法來獲取StackTraceElement型的集合,如果你手頭有IDEA的話,你可以先搜索出StackTraceElement類,可以發現它實現了接口Serializable ,再看看它的類描述:
/** * An element in a stack trace, as returned by {@link * Throwable#getStackTrace()}. Each element represents a single stack frame. * All stack frames except for the one at the top of the stack represent * a method invocation. The frame at the top of the stack represents the * execution point at which the stack trace was generated. Typically, * this is the point at which the throwable corresponding to the stack trace * was created. * * @since 1.4 * @author Josh Bloch */講的很清楚,這個類的每個實例都是stack trace的一個元素,代表著一個stack frame,stack trace是由getStackTrace()方法返回的。後邊的我試著翻譯了幾遍,都覺得不好,還是直接上代碼才能說清楚:
public class MyException { public static void main(String[] args){ MyException e = new MyException(); ea(); public void a(){ try { throw new Exception(); } catch (Exception e) { StackTraceElement[] ste = e.getStackTrace(); System.out.println(ste.length); } }}我們定義了方法a,讓它拋出Exception異常的同時捕獲它,然後我們通過getStackTrace()方法得到一個StackTraceElement型的數組,並打印出數組的長度:
7
Process finished with exit code 0
我們把代碼稍微改一下,不在a中捕獲異常了,我們重新定義一個方法b,讓它在調用a的同時將異常捕獲:
public class MyException { public static void main(String[] args){ MyException e = new MyException(); eb(); } public void b(){ try { a(); } catch (Exception e) { StackTraceElement[] ste = e.getStackTrace(); System.out.println(ste.length); } } public void a() throws Exception{ throw new Exception(); }}結果如下:
8
Process finished with exit code 0
別急,我們再來看點有趣的:
public class MyException { public static void main(String[] args){ MyException exception = new MyException(); try { exception.c(); } catch (Exception e) { StackTraceElement[] ste = e.getStackTrace(); System.out.println(ste.length); System.out.println("---------------------------------------------------------------"); for (StackTraceElement s : e.getStackTrace()){ System.out.println(s.getClassName()+":method "+s.getMethodName()+" at line"+s.getLineNumber()); } System.out.println("---------------------------------------------------------------"); } } public void c() throws Exception{ try { a(); }catch (Exception e){ throw e; } } public void a() throws Exception{ throw new Exception(); }}下面是結果:
8---------------------------------------------------------------MyException:method a at line43MyException:method c at line39MyException:method main at line9sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl:method invoke0 at line-2sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl:method invoke at line57sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl:method invoke at line43java.lang.reflect.Method:method invoke at line606com.intellij.rt.execution.application.AppMain:method main at line144---------------------------------------------------------------Process finished with exit code 0
也就是說,getStackTrace()返回一個棧,它包含從調用者(main())到初始拋出異常者(a())的一些基本信息,在上面的代碼中,我們在c方法中調用a方法時捕獲異常並通過throws將其再次拋出(rethrow),調用c方法的方法可以捕獲並處理異常,也可以選擇繼續拋出讓更高層次的調用者(靠近棧底)處理。 rethrow雖然很方便,但存在著一些問題,我們看下面這段代碼:
public class MyException { public static void main(String[] args){ MyException exception = new MyException(); try { exception.c(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(System.out); } } public void c() throws Exception{ try { a(); }catch (Exception e){ throw e; } } public void a() throws Exception{ throw new Exception("Exception from a()"); }}java.lang.Exception: Exception from a() at MyException.a(MyException.java:40) at MyException.c(MyException.java:30) at MyException.main(MyException.java:21)我們在c中重新拋出e,在main中使用e.printStackTrace()打印出來,可以看到打印出來stack trace還是屬於a的,如果我們想把stack trace變成c的可以這麼寫:
public class MyException { public static void main(String[] args){ MyException exception = new MyException(); try { exception.c(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(System.out); } } public void c() throws Exception{ try { a(); }catch (Exception e){// throw e; throw (Exception)e.fillInStackTrace(); } } public void a() throws Exception{ throw new Exception("Exception from a()"); }}java.lang.Exception: Exception from a() at MyException.c(MyException.java:22) at MyException.main(MyException.java:10)四異常鏈Exception chaining
先來看一個場景:
public class TestException { public static void main(String[] args){ TestException testException = new TestException(); try { testException.c(); } catch (CException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } public void a() throws AException{ AException aException = new AException("this is a exception"); throw aException; } public void b() throws BException{ try { a(); } catch (AException e) { throw new BException("this is b exception"); } } public void c() throws CException{ try { b(); } catch (BException e) { throw new CException("this is c exception"); } }}class AException extends Exception{ public AException(String msg){ super(msg); }}class BException extends Exception{ public BException(String msg){ super(msg); }}class CException extends Exception{ public CException(String msg){ super(msg); }}創建了三個異常類AException、BException、CException,然後在a()中拋出AException,在b()中捕獲AException並拋出BException,最後在c()中捕獲BException並拋出CException,結果打印如下:
CException: this is c exception at TestException.c(TestException.java:31) at TestException.main(TestException.java:8)
好,我們只看到了CException的信息,AException,BException的異常信息已丟失,這時候異常鏈的作用就出來了,看代碼:
public class TestException { public static void main(String[] args){ TestException testException = new TestException(); try { testException.c(); } catch (CException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } public void a() throws AException{ AException aException = new AException("this is a exception"); throw aException; } public void b() throws BException{ try { a(); } catch (AException e) {// throw new BException("this is b exception"); BException bException = new BException("this is b exception"); bException.initCause(e); throw bException; } } public void c() throws CException{ try { b(); } catch (BException e) {// throw new CException("this is c exception"); CException cException = new CException("this is c exception"); cException.initCause(e); throw cException; } }}class AException extends Exception{ public AException(String msg){ super(msg); }}class BException extends Exception{ public BException(String msg){ super(msg); }}class CException extends Exception{ public CException(String msg){ super(msg); }}我們用initCause()方法將異常信息給串聯了起來,結果如下:
CException: this is c exception at TestException.c(TestException.java:35) at TestException.main(TestException.java:8) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:57) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:606) at com.intellij.rt.execution.application.AppMain.main(AppMain.java:144)Caused by: BException: this is b exception at TestException.b(TestException.java:24) at TestException.c(TestException.java:32) ... 6 moreCaused by: AException: this is a exception at TestException.a(TestException.java:15) at TestException.b(TestException.java:21) ... 7 moreProcess finished with exit code 0
五後記
其實關於java異常處理還有很多需要探討的地方,但是由於我經驗有限,還不能體會的太深刻,最常用的也就是
try { ... }catch (Exception e){ ... }finally { //不管異常會不會被捕捉或者處理都會執行的代碼,如關閉IO操作}但是無論如何我們還是要感謝java給我們提供的異常機制,它好似一個長者,時不時給我們指引道路,也讓我們在編碼的時候沒有那麼無聊:)
