EOFException

  • EOFException signals an unexpected end of file or stream during input.

  • Primarily used by data input streams, it's an IOException subclass.

  • While EOFException indicates an unexpected end, many input operations return a special value instead of throwing this exception for expected end-of-stream scenarios.

  • Two constructors are available: one with a detailed message and one without.

public class EOFException extends IOException

Signals that an end of file or end of stream has been reached unexpectedly during input.

This exception is mainly used by data input streams to signal end of stream. Note that many other input operations return a special value on end of stream rather than throwing an exception.
