ParseException

Synopsis

Signals that a string has an incorrect format and cannot be parsed. It is typically thrown by the parse( ) or parseObject( ) methods of Format and its subclasses, but is also thrown by certain methods in the java.text package that are passed patterns or other rules in string form. The getErrorOffset( ) method of this class returns the character position at which the parsing error occurred in the offending string.
