              org.qtitools.qti.exception.QTIRuntimeException

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

QTIAttributeException, QTIEvaluationException, QTIItemFlowException, QTINodeGroupException, QTIParseException, QTIValidationException

public abstract class QTIRuntimeException
extends java.lang.RuntimeException

Superclass of all unchecked exceptions.

It is abstract class because you should never use this class directly. For example:

 throw new QTIRuntimeException()
 

(this is not possible anyway)

And you should never use this class in method header also. For example:

 void someMethod() throws QTIRuntimeException
 

Only two legal usages are as superclass of all unchecked exceptions and in catch block, when you don't need to distinguish between different exceptions types. For example:

 try
 {
   ... some code here ...
 }
 catch (QTIRuntimeException ex)
 {
   ... some code here ...
 }
 

We have decided to use only unchecked exceptions in JQTI library. There is big discussion on Internet about checked/unchecked exceptions (see Google).
