AccessDeniedException Checked exception thrown when a file system operation is denied, typically due to a file permission or other access check.  AsynchronousCloseException Checked exception received by a thread when another thread closes the channel or the part of the channel upon which it is blocked in an I/O operation.  AtomicMoveNotSupportedException Checked exception thrown when a file cannot be moved as an atomic file system operation.  BindException Signals that an error occurred while attempting to bind a socket to a local address and port.  ClosedByInterruptException Checked exception received by a thread when another thread interrupts it while it is blocked in an I/O operation upon a channel.  ConnectException Signals that an error occurred while attempting to connect a socket to a remote address and port.  DirectoryNotEmptyException Checked exception thrown when a file system operation fails because a directory is not empty.  FileAlreadyExistsException Checked exception thrown when an attempt is made to create a file or directory and a file of that name already exists.  FileSystemLoopException Checked exception thrown when a file system loop, or cycle, is encountered.  InvalidClassException Thrown when the Serialization runtime detects one of the following problems with a Class.  InvalidObjectException Indicates that one or more deserialized objects failed validation tests.  JarException Signals that an error of some sort has occurred while reading from or writing to a JAR file.  MalformedInputException Checked exception thrown when an input byte sequence is not legal for given charset, or an input character sequence is not a legal sixteen-bit Unicode sequence.  NoRouteToHostException Signals that an error occurred while attempting to connect a socket to a remote address and port.  NoSuchFileException Checked exception thrown when an attempt is made to access a file that does not exist.  NotActiveException Thrown when serialization or deserialization is not active.  NotDirectoryException Checked exception thrown when a file system operation, intended for a directory, fails because the file is not a directory.  NotLinkException Checked exception thrown when a file system operation fails because a file is not a symbolic link.  NotSerializableException Thrown when an instance is required to have a Serializable interface.  OptionalDataException Exception indicating the failure of an object read operation due to unread primitive data, or the end of data belonging to a serialized object in the stream.  PortUnreachableException Signals that an ICMP Port Unreachable message has been received on a connected datagram.  SSLHandshakeException Indicates that the client and server could not negotiate the desired level of security.  SSLKeyException Reports a bad SSL key.  SSLPeerUnverifiedException Indicates that the peer's identity has not been verified.  SSLProtocolException Reports an error in the operation of the SSL protocol.  SocketTimeoutException Signals that a timeout has occurred on a socket read or accept.  StreamCorruptedException Thrown when control information that was read from an object stream violates internal consistency checks.  UnmappableCharacterException Checked exception thrown when an input character (or byte) sequence is valid but cannot be mapped to an output byte (or character) sequence.  WriteAbortedException Signals that one of the ObjectStreamExceptions was thrown during a write operation.

Signals that an I/O exception of some sort has occurred. This class is the general class of exceptions produced by failed or interrupted I/O operations.

Public Constructor Summary

	IOException() Constructs an IOException with null as its error detail message.
	IOException(String message) Constructs an IOException with the specified detail message.
	IOException(String message, Throwable cause) Constructs an IOException with the specified detail message and cause.
	IOException(Throwable cause) Constructs an IOException with the specified cause and a detail message of (cause==null ? null : cause.toString()) (which typically contains the class and detail message of cause).

Inherited Method Summary

From class java.lang.Throwable

synchronized final void	addSuppressed(Throwable exception) Appends the specified exception to the exceptions that were suppressed in order to deliver this exception.

String	getLocalizedMessage() Creates a localized description of this throwable.
String	getMessage() Returns the detail message string of this throwable.
StackTraceElement[]	getStackTrace() Provides programmatic access to the stack trace information printed by printStackTrace().
synchronized final Throwable[]	getSuppressed() Returns an array containing all of the exceptions that were suppressed, typically by the try-with-resources statement, in order to deliver this exception.

final void	wait(long timeout, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
final void	wait(long timeout) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
final void	wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object.

Public Constructors

public IOException ()

Constructs an IOException with null as its error detail message.

public IOException (String message)

Constructs an IOException with the specified detail message.

Parameters

message	The detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method)

public IOException (String message, Throwable cause)

Constructs an IOException with the specified detail message and cause.

Note that the detail message associated with cause is not automatically incorporated into this exception's detail message.

Parameters

message	The detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getMessage() method)
cause	The cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getCause() method). (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

public IOException (Throwable cause)

Constructs an IOException with the specified cause and a detail message of (cause==null ? null : cause.toString()) (which typically contains the class and detail message of cause). This constructor is useful for IO exceptions that are little more than wrappers for other throwables.

Parameters

cause	The cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the Throwable.getCause() method). (A null value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)
