public class JavaModelException
extends org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException

A checked exception representing a failure in the Java model. Java model exceptions contain a Java-specific status object describing the cause of the exception.

Instances of this class are automatically created by the Java model when problems arise, so there is generally no need for clients to create instances.

                          int code)
Creates a Java model exception that wrappers the given Throwable. The exception contains a Java-specific status object with severity IStatus.ERROR and the given status code.

Parameters:
e - the Throwable
code - one of the Java-specific status codes declared in IJavaModelStatusConstants
See Also:
IJavaModelStatusConstants, IStatus.ERROR

JavaModelException

public JavaModelException(org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException exception)
Creates a Java model exception for the given CoreException. Equivalent to JavaModelException(exception,IJavaModelStatusConstants.CORE_EXCEPTION.

Parameters:
exception - the CoreException

JavaModelException

public JavaModelException(IJavaModelStatus status)
Creates a Java model exception for the given Java-specific status object.

Parameters:
status - the Java-specific status object
Method Detail

getException

public java.lang.Throwable getException()
Returns the underlying Throwable that caused the failure.

Returns:
the wrappered Throwable, or null if the direct case of the failure was at the Java model layer

getJavaModelStatus

public IJavaModelStatus getJavaModelStatus()
Returns the Java model status object for this exception. Equivalent to (IJavaModelStatus) getStatus().

Returns:
a status object

isDoesNotExist

public boolean isDoesNotExist()
Returns whether this exception indicates that a Java model element does not exist. Such exceptions have a status with a code of IJavaModelStatusConstants.ELEMENT_DOES_NOT_EXIST or IJavaModelStatusConstants.ELEMENT_NOT_ON_CLASSPATH. This is a convenience method.

Returns:
true if this exception indicates that a Java model element does not exist
