    public class Error

extends Throwable

An `Error` is a subclass of `Throwable` that indicates serious problems that a reasonable application should not try to catch. Most such errors are abnormal conditions.

A method is not required to declare in its `throws` clause any subclasses of `Error` that might be thrown during the execution of the method but not caught, since these errors are abnormal conditions that should never occur.

Direct instances of this error 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.

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

Since:
  JDK1.0, CLDC 1.0, Java Card 3.0
