DigestException

  • DigestException is a generic exception that signals problems with message digests (hashing algorithms).

  • It extends GeneralSecurityException and provides constructors for creating exceptions with or without detailed messages and causes.

  • It inherits methods from Throwable for managing stack traces, causes, and suppressed exceptions.

  • The constructors allow you to specify a detailed message, a cause, or both to describe the nature of the exception.

public class DigestException extends GeneralSecurityException
