Name
ExceptionInInitializerError
Synopsis
This
error is thrown by the Java Virtual Machine when an exception occurs
in the static initializer of a class. You can use the
getException( )
method to obtain the
Throwable
object that was thrown from the
initializer. In Java 1.4 and later, getException(
)
has been superseded by the more general
getCause( )
method of the
Throwable
class.
