Class ApplicationException

              javacardx.framework.ApplicationException

    public final class ApplicationException

extends Exception

The class `ApplicationException` encapsulates generic checked exceptions that an application may throw.

The ApplicationException class provides a generic means for some auxiliary (e.g., application-defined) information to be set in the exception. The actual semantics of this information may be specific to the application throwing the exception.

A typical use case for this class is for exceptions thrown by methods of an SIO-based service or event.

Instances of this exception class are not bound to any context and can be passed between contexts without any restrictions. Objects created and returned by the methods of this class are owned by the caller. In particular, a call to the `Throwable.getMessage()` returns a String instance bound to the owner context of the caller. Note though that this is not the case for the `getInfo()` method; this method returns the same object that was passed to the constructor.

See Runtime Environment Specification for the Java Card Platform, Connected Edition, chapter 7 for details regarding transfer of ownership.

Since:
  Java Card 3.0

Constructor Detail

### ApplicationException

    public ApplicationException(String message,
                                Object info)

  Constructs an `ApplicationException` with a detail message and auxiliary (e.g., application-defined) information. Developers must account for context isolation and should typically provide the auxiliary information in the form of an SIO or an "implicitly transferable" object (or even an "explicitly transferable" object whose ownership has been transferred to the application intended to catch the exception).

  Parameters:
    `message` - the detail message (a `null` is permitted).
    `info` - the auxiliary information (a `null` is permitted).

### ApplicationException

    public ApplicationException(String message)

  Constructs an `ApplicationException` with a detail message and no (null) auxiliary application-defined information.

  Parameters:
    `message` - the detail message (a `null` is permitted).

### ApplicationException

    public ApplicationException()

  Constructs an `ApplicationException` with no (null) detail message and no (null) auxiliary application-defined information.

Method Detail

### getInfo

    public Object getInfo()

  Returns the auxiliary (e.g., application-defined) information.

  Returns:
    the auxiliary information, or `null` if no auxiliary information was provided.
