/**
* The <code>Throwable</code> class is the superclass of all errors
* and exceptions in the Java language. Only objects that are
* instances of this class (or of one of its subclasses) are thrown
* by the Java Virtual Machine or can be thrown by the Java
* <code>throw</code> statement. Similarly, only this class or one of
* its subclasses can be the argument type in a <code>catch</code>
* clause.
* <p>
* Instances of two subclasses, {@link java.lang.Error} and
* {@link java.lang.Exception}, are conventionally used to indicate
* that exceptional situations have occurred. Typically, these instances
* are freshly created in the context of the exceptional situation so
* as to include relevant information (such as stack trace data).
* <p>
* By convention, class <code>Throwable</code> and its subclasses have
* two constructors, one that takes no arguments and one that takes a
* <code>String</code> argument that can be used to produce an error
* message.
* <p>
* A <code>Throwable</code> class contains a snapshot of the
* execution stack of its thread at the time it was created. It can
* also contain a message string that gives more information about
* the error.
* <p>
* Here is one example of catching an exception:
* <p><blockquote><pre>
* try {
* int a[] = new int[2];
* int b = a[4];
* } catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
* System.out.println("exception: " + e.getMessage());
* e.printStackTrace();
* }
* </pre></blockquote>
*
* @version 12/17/01 (CLDC 1.1)
* @since JDK1.0, CLDC 1.0
