Error handling and logging are important aspects of software development in Java. They help developers identify and handle errors, exceptions, and unexpected behavior in their applications. In Java, error handling is typically done using exceptions, while logging is used to record information about the application’s execution.
Error Handling with Exceptions:
try { // Code that may throw an exception } catch (IOException e) { // Exception handling code for IOException } catch (NullPointerException e) { // Exception handling code for NullPointerException } catch (Exception e) { // Generic exception handling code }
throw
keyword is used, followed by an instance of the exception class. Example:public void someMethod() throws CustomException { if (/* condition */) { throw new CustomException("Error message"); } }
Logging:
import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager; import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger; public class MyClass { private static final Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger(MyClass.class); public void someMethod() { logger.debug("Debug message"); logger.info("Info message"); logger.warn("Warning message"); logger.error("Error message"); } }
# Set root logger level rootLogger.level = debug # Console Appender appender.console.type = Console appender.console.name = ConsoleAppender appender.console.target = SYSTEM_OUT appender.console.layout.type = PatternLayout appender.console.layout.pattern = %d [%t] %-5p %c{1} - %m%n # Loggers logger.myapp.name = com.example.myapp logger.myapp.level = info logger.myapp.appenderRef.console.ref = ConsoleAppender
These are the basic concepts of error handling and logging in Java. Implementing proper error handling and logging practices helps developers diagnose and resolve issues effectively during application development and maintenance.
