Method Detail

• printStackTrace

  public static java.lang.String printStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable throwable)

  Generate string for specified exception and the cause of this exception (if any).

  Parameters:

  throwable - a Throwable

  Returns:

  the stack trace as a String

• printStackTrace

  public static java.lang.String printStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable throwable,
                                                 boolean printCascading)

  Generate string for specified exception and if printCascading is true will print all cascading exceptions.

  Parameters:

  throwable - a Throwable

  printCascading - if true will print all cascading exceptions

  Returns:

  the stack trace as a String

• printStackTrace

  public static java.lang.String printStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable throwable,
                                                 int depth)

  Serialize the specified Throwable to a string. Restrict the number of frames printed out to the specified depth. If the depth specified is 0 then all the frames are converted into a string.

  Parameters:

  throwable - a Throwable

  depth - number of stack trace frames to show

  Returns:

  the stack trace as a String

• printStackTrace

  public static java.lang.String printStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable throwable,
                                                 int depth,
                                                 boolean printCascading)

  Generate exception string for specified exception to specified depth and all Cascading exceptions if printCascading is true.

  Parameters:

  throwable - a Throwable

  depth - number of stack trace frames to show

  printCascading - if true will print all cascading exceptions

  Returns:

  the stack trace as a String

• printStackTrace

  public static java.lang.String printStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable throwable,
                                                 int depth,
                                                 boolean printCascading,
                                                 boolean useReflection)

  Generate exception string for specified exception to specified depth and all Cascading exceptions if printCascading is true. If useReflection is true then the method will also attempt to use reflection to find a method with signature Throwable getCause(). This makes it compatible with JDK1.4 mechanisms for nesting exceptions.

  Parameters:

  throwable - a Throwable

  depth - number of stack trace frames to show

  printCascading - if true will print all cascading exceptions

  useReflection - if true will use reflection to handle JDK1.4 nested exceptions

  Returns:

  the stack trace as a String

• getCause

  public static java.lang.Throwable getCause(java.lang.Throwable throwable,
                                             boolean useReflection)

  Utility method to get cause of exception.

  Parameters:

  throwable - a Throwable

  useReflection - if true will use reflection to handle JDK1.4 nested exceptions

  Returns:

  cause of specified exception

• captureStackTrace

  public static java.lang.String[] captureStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable throwable)

  Captures the stack trace associated with this exception.

  Parameters:

  throwable - a Throwable

  Returns:

  an array of Strings describing stack frames.

• splitString

  public static java.lang.String[] splitString(java.lang.String string,
                                               java.lang.String onToken)

  Deprecated. This is an internal utility method that should not be used
  Splits the string on every token into an array of stack frames.

  Parameters:

  string - the string to split

  onToken - the token to split on

  Returns:

  the resultant array
