SSLException

AI-generated Key Takeaways

• SSLException signals errors encountered during SSL-related operations.

• It serves as the base class for more specific SSL exception types like SSLHandshakeException and SSLKeyException.

• This exception provides constructors to detail the error with a message and/or underlying cause.

• SSLException inherits methods from Throwable for managing stack traces and exception details.

public class SSLException extends IOException

Known Direct Subclasses SSLHandshakeException, SSLKeyException, SSLPeerUnverifiedException, SSLProtocolException 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.

Indicates some kind of error detected by an SSL subsystem. This class is the general class of exceptions produced by failed SSL-related operations.

Public Constructor Summary

	SSLException(String reason) Constructs an exception reporting an error found by an SSL subsystem.
	SSLException(String message, Throwable cause) Creates a SSLException with the specified detail message and cause.
	SSLException(Throwable cause) Creates a SSLException 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.
synchronized Throwable	fillInStackTrace() Fills in the execution stack trace.
synchronized Throwable	getCause() Returns the cause of this throwable or null if the cause is nonexistent or unknown.
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.
synchronized Throwable	initCause(Throwable cause) Initializes the cause of this throwable to the specified value.
void	printStackTrace() Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the standard error stream.
void	printStackTrace(PrintWriter s) Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the specified print writer.
void	printStackTrace(PrintStream s) Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the specified print stream.
void	setStackTrace(StackTraceElement[] stackTrace) Sets the stack trace elements that will be returned by getStackTrace() and printed by printStackTrace() and related methods.
String	toString() Returns a short description of this throwable.

From class java.lang.Object

Object	clone() Creates and returns a copy of this Object.
boolean	equals(Object obj) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal.
void	finalize() Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable.
final Class<?>	getClass() Returns the unique instance of Class that represents this object's class.
int	hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the wait() methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the wait() methods) to be woken up.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
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 SSLException (String reason)

Constructs an exception reporting an error found by an SSL subsystem.

Parameters

reason	describes the problem.

public SSLException (String message, Throwable cause)

Creates a SSLException with the specified detail message and cause.

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 SSLException (Throwable cause)

Creates a SSLException with the specified cause and a detail message of (cause==null ? null : cause.toString()) (which typically contains the class and detail message of cause).

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.)
