public class InstantiationError
extends IncompatibleClassChangeError

java.lang.Object
↳	java.lang.Throwable
	↳	java.lang.Error
		↳	java.lang.LinkageError
			↳	java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError
				↳	java.lang.InstantiationError

Thrown when an application tries to use the Java new construct to instantiate an abstract class or an interface.

Normally, this error is caught by the compiler; this error can only occur at run time if the definition of a class has incompatibly changed.

Public constructors
`InstantiationError()` Constructs an `InstantiationError` with no detail message.
`InstantiationError(String s)` Constructs an `InstantiationError` with the specified detail message.

    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`	`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.

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

`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.
