Exception: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

  • public exception InvocationTargetException
  • extends Exception
InvocationTargetException is a checked exception that wraps an exception thrown by an invoked method or constructor.

As of release 1.4, this exception has been retrofitted to conform to the general purpose exception-chaining mechanism. The "target exception" that is provided at construction time and accessed via the java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException.getTargetException() method is now known as the cause, and may be accessed via the Throwable.getCause() method, as well as the aforementioned "legacy method."

  • getTargetExceptiontop

    public Throwable getTargetException()
    Get the thrown target exception.

    Return:
    @return the thrown target exception (cause of this exception).
