public void uncaughtException( Thread t,
Throwable e )
Parameters
- t
- the thread that is about to exit.
- e
- the uncaught exception.
Description
Called by the Java Virtual Machine when a thread in this
thread group stops because of an uncaught exception.
The uncaughtException method of
ThreadGroup does the following:
- If this thread group has a parent thread group, the
uncaughtException method of that parent is called
with the same two arguments.
- Otherwise, this method determines if the Throwable
argument is an instance of ThreadDeath. If so, nothing
special is done. Otherwise, the Throwable's
printStackTrace method is called to print a stack
backtrace to the standard error stream.
Applications can override this method in subclasses of
ThreadGroup to provide alternative handling of
uncaught exceptions.
