public class RemoteException
extends IOException
A RemoteException is the common superclass for a number of communication-related exceptions that may occur during the execution of a remote method call. Each method of a remote interface, an interface that extends java.rmi.Remote, must list RemoteException in its throws clause.

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

Invoking the method Throwable.initCause(Throwable) on an instance of RemoteException always throws IllegalStateException.

Since:
1.1

field:detail [NONE]

  • detail

    public RemoteException()
    Constructs a RemoteException.

    • constructor:RemoteException(java.lang.String) [NONE]

    constructor:RemoteException(java.lang.String,java.lang.Throwable) [NONE]

    RemoteException

    public RemoteException​(String s, Throwable cause)
    Constructs a RemoteException with the specified detail message and cause. This constructor sets the detail field to the specified Throwable.
    Parameters:
    s - the detail message
    cause - the cause

    method:getMessage() [NONE]

  • getMessage

    public String getMessage()
    Returns the detail message, including the message from the cause, if any, of this exception.
    Overrides:

    • method:getCause() [NONE]

    getCause

    public Throwable getCause()
    Returns the cause of this exception. This method returns the value of the detail field.
