Question

I have this snipped code:

   try{
        JAXB.xmlJavaConverter(clientCommand);
    } catch (Exception e){
        nServerFifo.add(clientCommand);
    }

I want to call remote Java method JAXB.xmlJavaConverter(clientCommand);. If this some reason fails I want to insert the data into Buffer nServerFifo.add(clientCommand);. How I can do this without stopping the code execution. I’m sure that I must replace Exception e with something else but I’m not sure what type of exeption I need without sopping the code execution.

Answer 1

If you catch Exception, the catch block will be entered for any exception.

Your existing code should work.

If you only want to enter the catch block for a specific type of Exception (which your question does not seem to imply), you would write

catch (MoreSpecificExceptionType e)

If you did do that,

nServerFifo.add(clientCommand);

would be executed only if the code in the try block throws MoreSpecificException.
