Known Direct Subclasses

AnnotationFormatError, AssertionError, AssertionFailedError, CoderMalfunctionError, FactoryConfigurationError, IOError, LinkageError, ServiceConfigurationError, ThreadDeath, TransformerFactoryConfigurationError, VirtualMachineError

AnnotationFormatError	Thrown when the annotation parser attempts to read an annotation from a class file and determines that the annotation is malformed.
AssertionError	Thrown to indicate that an assertion has failed.
AssertionFailedError	This class was deprecated in API level 16. use junit.framework.AssertionFailedError
CoderMalfunctionError	Error thrown when the `decodeLoop` method of a `CharsetDecoder`, or the `encodeLoop` method of a `CharsetEncoder`, throws an unexpected exception.
FactoryConfigurationError	Thrown when a problem with configuration with the Parser Factories exists.
IOError	Thrown when a serious I/O error has occurred.
LinkageError	Subclasses of `LinkageError` indicate that a class has some dependency on another class; however, the latter class has incompatibly changed after the compilation of the former class.
ServiceConfigurationError	Error thrown when something goes wrong while loading a service provider.
ThreadDeath	An instance of `ThreadDeath` is thrown in the victim thread when the (deprecated) `stop()` method is invoked.
TransformerFactoryConfigurationError	Thrown when a problem with configuration with the Transformer Factories exists.
VirtualMachineError	Thrown to indicate that the Java Virtual Machine is broken or has run out of resources necessary for it to continue operating.

Known Indirect Subclasses

AbstractMethodError, AssertionFailedError, ClassCircularityError, ClassFormatError, ComparisonFailure, ExceptionInInitializerError, GenericSignatureFormatError, IllegalAccessError, IncompatibleClassChangeError, InstantiationError, InternalError, NoClassDefFoundError, NoSuchFieldError, NoSuchMethodError, and 6 others.

AbstractMethodError	Thrown when an application tries to call an abstract method.
AssertionFailedError	Thrown when an assertion 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.
ComparisonFailure	Thrown when an assert equals for Strings failed.
ExceptionInInitializerError	Signals that an unexpected exception has occurred in a static initializer.
GenericSignatureFormatError	Thrown when a syntactically malformed signature attribute is encountered by a reflective method that needs to interpret the generic signature information for a type, method or constructor.
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 Java `new` construct to instantiate an abstract class or an interface.
InternalError	Thrown to indicate some unexpected internal error has occurred in the Java Virtual Machine.
NoClassDefFoundError	Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine or a `ClassLoader` instance 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 the `new` expression) 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 declared `native`.
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.
ZipError	Signals that an unrecoverable error has occurred.

An Error is a subclass of Throwable that indicates serious problems that a reasonable application should not try to catch. Most such errors are abnormal conditions. The ThreadDeath error, though a "normal" condition, is also a subclass of Error because most applications should not try to catch it.

A method is not required to declare in its throws clause any subclasses of Error that might be thrown during the execution of the method but not caught, since these errors are abnormal conditions that should never occur. That is, Error and its subclasses are regarded as unchecked exceptions for the purposes of compile-time checking of exceptions.

Summary

Public constructors
`Error()` Constructs a new error with `null` as its detail message.
`Error(String message)` Constructs a new error with the specified detail message.
`Error(String message, Throwable cause)` Constructs a new error with the specified detail message and cause.
`Error(Throwable cause)` Constructs a new error with the specified cause and a detail message of `(cause==null ? null : cause.toString())` (which typically contains the class and detail message of `cause`).

Protected constructors
`Error(String message, Throwable cause, boolean enableSuppression, boolean writableStackTrace)` Constructs a new error with the specified detail message, cause, suppression enabled or disabled, and writable stack trace enabled or disabled.

Inherited methods

From class


  
    java.lang.Throwable

`final void`	`addSuppressed(Throwable exception)` Appends the specified exception to the exceptions that were suppressed in order to deliver this exception.
`Throwable`	`fillInStackTrace()` Fills in the execution stack trace.
`Throwable`	`getCause()` Returns the cause of this throwable or `null` if the cause is nonexistent or unknown.
`String`	`getLocalizedMessage()` Creates a localized description of this throwable.
`String`	`getMessage()` Returns the detail message string of this throwable.
`StackTraceElement[]`	`getStackTrace()` Provides programmatic access to the stack trace information printed by `printStackTrace()`.
`final Throwable[]`	`getSuppressed()` Returns an array containing all of the exceptions that were suppressed, typically by the `try`-with-resources statement, in order to deliver this exception.
`Throwable`	`initCause(Throwable cause)` Initializes the cause of this throwable to the specified value.
`void`	`printStackTrace()` Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the standard error stream.
`void`	`printStackTrace(PrintWriter s)` Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the specified print writer.
`void`	`printStackTrace(PrintStream s)` Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the specified print stream.
`void`	`setStackTrace(StackTraceElement[] stackTrace)` Sets the stack trace elements that will be returned by `getStackTrace()` and printed by `printStackTrace()` and related methods.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a short description of this throwable.

From class


  
    java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long millis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long millis)` Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.

Public constructors

Error

Added in API level 1

Error ()

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

Error

Added in API level 1

Error (String message)

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

Parameters
`message`	`String`: the detail message. The detail message is saved for later retrieval by the `getMessage()` method.

Error

Added in API level 1

Error (String message, 
                Throwable cause)

Constructs a new error with the specified detail message and cause.

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

Parameters
`message`	`String`: the detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the `getMessage()` method).
`cause`	`Throwable`: the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the `getCause()` method). (A `null` value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

Error

Added in API level 1

Error (Throwable cause)

Constructs a new error 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 errors that are little more than wrappers for other throwables.

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

Protected constructors

Error

                Throwable cause, 
                boolean enableSuppression, 
                boolean writableStackTrace)

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

Parameters
`message`	`String`: the detail message.
`cause`	`Throwable`: the cause. (A `null` value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)
`enableSuppression`	`boolean`: whether or not suppression is enabled or disabled
