This code is often in a non-EDT thread such * as a thread that is receiving data from a server. If the non-EDT threads puts a * call on the EDT and that EDT call causes and exception, the stack trace of the * exception is lost, and it often difficult or impossible to determine where the * non-EDT call came from. * <p> * This Exception class is used to handle exceptions that occur when * events are posted on the Swing EDT or occur on another thread from the Swing EDT. * It includes a "swing" call stack to record from where the event occurred, * and overrides so that the exception and the swing calling stack * print nicely to logs. * <p> * The swing calling stack is different from the cause of the exception since * it is gathered before the exception occurs in a different stack from the cause * and used after the exception in a new thread occurs. * @todo in SwingUtils, make an invokeLater method that saves the calling stack * catches all exceptions from a subsequent call to SwingUtilities. invokeLater() * and throws a Swing Exception so the calling stack is saves. * @author Michael Bushe michael@bushe.com */ public class SwingException extends Exception { protected StackTraceElement[] callingStackTrace; /**Default constructor*/ public SwingException() { super(); } /**Constructor for compatibility with Exception. * Use ClientException(String, Throwable, StackTraceElement[]) instead*/ public SwingException(String message) { super(message); } /**Constructor for compatibility with Exception * Use ClientException(String, Throwable, StackTraceElement[]) instead*/ public SwingException(Throwable cause) { super(cause); } /**Constructor for compatibility with Exception * Use ClientException(String, Throwable, StackTraceElement[]) instead*/ public SwingException(String message, Throwable cause) { super(message, cause); } /** * Preferred constructor. * <p> * @param message The message of exception * @param cause The cause of the exception in the same call stack * @param callingStack the stack trace that the client used to call * the exception to occur. */ public SwingException(String message, Throwable cause, StackTraceElement[] callingStack) { super(message, cause); setCallingStack(callingStack); } /** * Swing exceptions often have two stacks - one thread causes the posting * of an action on another thread - usually the Swing EDT thread.
