Question

I have a Java Program where I get data from a different source. some times while reading I see Exception and the program is exiting.
Mine is in a program that runs every 10minutes.

Public static void main(Strings[] args)
{
...readsource();
}

Private static void readsource() throws IOException
{
...
}

Issue:
I am able to get/See the Exception. But I want the program to continue
To that what is the best logic? I dont see try-catch-finally also is not addressing ..I want the program to continue even after seing the exception (I mean the next iteration should continue). This looks to be a Basic issue not sure how to address this…

Answer 1

Then you need to catch the exception, which you are currently not doing.

try  {
    readsource();
} catch (IOException e) {
   // do something, never catch an exception and not do anything
}

//continue.

Note that exceptions usually indicate something is wrong. Unless you are going to do something about the exception, it might be better to fix the condition causing the exception….
