Java Exception Handling - Multiple Cache Blocks Examples

A single try block can have multiple catch blocks. This is required when the try block has statements that generates different types of exceptions.
If the first catch block contains the Exception class object then the subsequent catch blocks are never executed.
The last catch block in multiple catch blocks must contain the Exception class object. This is because, the java complier gives an error saying that the subsequent catch blocks haven't been reached. This is known as Unreachable code problem.

Multiple Cache Blocks Sample Code

Code:

package com.myjava.exceptions;

import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;

public class MyMultipleCatchBlocks {
    
    public static void main(String a[]){
        MyMultipleCatchBlocks mmcb = new MyMultipleCatchBlocks();
        mmcb.execute(1);
        mmcb.execute(2);
    }
    
    public void execute(int i){
        try{
            if(i == 1){
                getIntValue("7u");
            } else {
                getUrlObj("www.junksite.com");
            }
        } catch (NumberFormatException nfe){
            System.out.println("Inside NumberFormatException... "+nfe.getMessage());
        } catch (MalformedURLException mue){
            System.out.println("Inside MalformedURLException... "+mue.getMessage());
        } catch (Exception ex){
            System.out.println("Inside Exception... "+ex.getMessage());
        }
    }
    public int getIntValue(String num){
        return Integer.parseInt(num);
    }
    
    public URL getUrlObj(String urlStr) throws MalformedURLException{
        return new URL(urlStr);
    }
}

Example Output

Inside NumberFormatException... For input string: "7u"
Inside MalformedURLException... no protocol: www.junksite.com

Exception Vs Error

An error is an irrecoverable condition occurring at runtime like out of memory error. These kind of jvm errors cannot be handled at runtime. Exceptions are because of condition failures, which can be handled easily at runtime.

I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
