[SOLVED] multiple try catch

[AndrewM16921]

Is there any difference between these two code fragments?

Do I need a try statement for each exception?

try
{
	try
	{
		//Code to be executed
	}
	catch (NumberFormatException e) 
	{
		System.out.println("Error: Invalid parameters."); 
		System.out.println(e);
	}
}
catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e)
{
	System.out.println("Error: Invalid parameters."); 
	System.out.println(e);
}

Or does a single try statement handle both?

try
{
	//Code to be executed
}
catch (Exception e) 
{
	System.out.println("Error: Invalid parameters."); 
	System.out.println(e);
}

You can have multiple catch for each try block.

try {
    //Code to be executed
}
catch (NumberFormatException e) {
    //Handle error
}
catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
    //Handle error
}

That way you won't catch exceptions that you don't want to - better for debugging

Ooooh... Thanks! : )

in some way both work fine but the 1st one is more specific exception that u want to caught. the second one where u use exception which is a supper class of all exception can catch all. so can be a problem in debugging . but in the first example one need to make sure that all the code are reachable by compiler.
