Compile-Time Checking of Exceptions

设计思想

RuntimeException
一般情况下,不要捕获或声明RuntimeException。因为问题在于你的程序逻辑本身有问题,
如果你用异常流程处理了,反而让正常流程问题一直存在。
程序应该从逻辑角度尽可能避免这类异常的发生;

non-RuntimeException
RuntimeException之外的异常我们统称为非运行时异常。
从程序语法角度讲是必须进行处理的异常,如果不处理,程序就不能编译通过。

非运行时异常,编译期要做语法检查,即检查是否处理了catch。程序报Exception还是要运行期才能知道的。

An Exception is checked, and a RuntimeException is unchecked.

  • A checked exception must be handled explicitly by the code (catch or throw)
  • An un-checked exception does not need to be explicitly handled.

ambiguous, common errors, common misconceptions

Is non-RuntimeException CompiletimeException in java framework?
No, non-RuntimeException would be checked in compile time. But the Exception occurs in run time.

where did RuntimeException comes from

since JDK1.0

new/reasonable framework

In my view, the RuntimeException should be renamed as CheckedException

  • RuntimeException
    • CheckedException
    • UncheckedException
  • CompiletimeException
  • ..

other framework

  1. <Java language specification 8>

    Some programming languages and their implementations react to such errors
    by peremptorily terminating the program; other programming languages allow an
    implementation to react in an arbitrary or unpredictable way. Neither of these
    approaches is compatible with the design goals of the Java SE platform: to provide
    portability and robustness.

Instead, the Java programming language specifies that an exception will be thrown
when semantic constraints are violated and will cause a non-local transfer of control
from the point where the exception occurred to a point that can be specified by the
programmer.
