Package java.lang

Interface Summary
Appendable	An Appendable object is one to which a sequence of Unicode characters can be added.
CharSequence	General functions on a sequence of chars.
Cloneable	This interface should be implemented by classes wishing to support of override Object.clone().
Comparable<T>	Interface for objects that can be ordering among other objects.
Deprecated	This annotation is used as a marker to indicate that the annotated declaration is deprecated and should not be used in new code.
Iterable<E>	This interface is used to indicate that a given class can be iterated over.
Override	This annotation is used as a marker to indicate that the annotated method declaration is intended to override another method in the class hierarchy.
Readable	A Readable object is simply a source for Unicode character data.
Runnable	Runnable is an interface you implement to indicate that your class can be executed as the main part of a Thread, among other places.
SuppressWarnings	Tell the compiler that a given warning should be suppressed when it pertains to the marked program element and its sub-elements.
Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler	This interface is used to handle uncaught exceptions which cause a Thread to terminate.

Class Summary

Package	Everything you ever wanted to know about a package.
Process	An instance of a subclass of Process is created by the Runtime.exec methods.

StringBuilder	StringBuilder represents a changeable String.
System	System represents system-wide resources; things that represent the general environment.
Thread	Thread represents a single thread of execution in the VM.
Thread.State	Represents the current state of a thread, according to the VM rather than the operating system.
ThreadGroup	ThreadGroup allows you to group Threads together.
ThreadLocal<T>	ThreadLocal objects have a different state associated with every Thread that accesses them.
Throwable	Throwable is the superclass of all exceptions that can be raised.
Void	Void is a placeholder class so that the variable Void.TYPE (also available as void.class) can be supported for reflection return types.

Exception Summary
ArithmeticException	Thrown when a math error has occured, such as trying to divide an integer by zero.
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException	Thrown when attempting to access a position outside the valid range of an array.
ArrayStoreException	Thrown when trying to store an object of the wrong runtime type in an array.
ClassCastException	Thrown when an attempt is made to cast an object which is not of the appropriate runtime type.
ClassNotFoundException	Thrown when a class is requested by reflection, but the class definition cannot be found.
CloneNotSupportedException	Thrown to indicate an object should not or could not be cloned.
EnumConstantNotPresentException	An exception of this type is thrown when a symbolic reference is made to an enum constant which does not exist.
Exception	The root class of all exceptions worth catching in a program.
IllegalAccessException	Thrown whenever a reflective method tries to do something that the compiler would not allow.
IllegalArgumentException	Thrown when a method is passed an illegal or inappropriate argument.
IllegalMonitorStateException	Thrown when a thread attempts to wait or notify on a monitor that it does not own (ie. it has not synchronized on the object).
IllegalStateException	Thrown when a method is invoked at an illegal or inappropriate time.
IllegalThreadStateException	Thrown When trying to manipulate a Thread which is in an inappropriate state.
IndexOutOfBoundsException	This exception can be thrown to indicate an attempt to access an index which is out of bounds on objects like String, Array, or Vector.
InstantiationException	Thrown when an attempt is made to use reflection to build a non-instantiable class (an interface or abstract class).
InterruptedException	Thrown when a thread interrupts another thread which was previously sleeping, waiting, or paused in some other way.
NegativeArraySizeException	Thrown when an attempt is made to create an array with a negative size.
NoSuchFieldException	Thrown to indicate the class does not have the specified field.
NoSuchMethodException	Thrown to indicate the class does not have the specified method.
NullPointerException	Thrown when attempting to use null where an object is required.
NumberFormatException	Can be thrown when attempting to convert a String to one of the numeric types, but the operation fails because the string has the wrong format.
RuntimeException	All exceptions which are subclasses of RuntimeException can be thrown at any time during the execution of a Java virtual machine.
SecurityException	The security manager will throw this exception to indicate a security violation.
StringIndexOutOfBoundsException	This exception can be thrown to indicate an attempt to access an index which is out of bounds of a String.
TypeNotPresentException	Thrown when a type is accessed using a String-based representation, but no definition of the supplied type is found.
UnsupportedOperationException	This exception is thrown by an object when an operation is requested of it that it does not support.

Error Summary
AbstractMethodError	An AbstractMethodError is thrown when an application attempts to access an abstract method.
AssertionError	An assertion error normally occurs as a result of the assert statement added in JDK 1.4, to indicate that an assertion failed.
ClassCircularityError	A ClassCircularityError is thrown when a circular dependency has been detected while initializing a class.
ClassFormatError	A ClassFormatError is thrown when a Java Virtual Machine unable to read a class file because the file is corrupted or cannot be interpreted as a class file.
Error	Applications should not try to catch errors since they indicate abnormal conditions.
ExceptionInInitializerError	An ExceptionInInitializerError is thrown when an uncaught exception has occurred in a static initializer or the initializer for a static variable.
IllegalAccessError	An IllegalAccessError is thrown when an attempt is made to call a method, or access or modify a field that the application does not have access to.
IncompatibleClassChangeError	An IncompatibleClassChangeError is thrown when the definition of a class used by the currently executing method has changed in an incompatible way.
InstantiationError	An InstantiationError is thrown when an attempt is made to create an instance of an abstract class or an interface.
InternalError	An InternalError is thrown when a mystical error has occurred in the Java Virtual Machine.
LinkageError	Subclasses of LinkageError are thrown to indicate that two classes which were compatible at separate compilation times cannot be linked to one another.
NoClassDefFoundError	A NoClassDefFoundError is thrown when a classloader or the Java Virtual Machine tries to load a class and no definition of the class can be found.
NoSuchFieldError	A NoSuchFieldError is thrown if an application attempts to access a field of a class, and that class no longer has that field.
NoSuchMethodError	A NoSuchMethodError is thrown if an application attempts to access a method of a class, and that class no longer has that method.
OutOfMemoryError	Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine is unable to allocate an object because it is out of memory and no more memory could be made available by the garbage collector.
StackOverflowError	A StackOverflowError is thrown when the execution stack overflow occurs.
ThreadDeath	ThreadDeath is thrown in a thread when someone calls stop() on that thread.
UnknownError	An UnknownError is thrown when a serious but unknown problem has occurred in the Java Virtual Machine.
UnsatisfiedLinkError	A UnsatisfiedLinkError is thrown if an appropriate native language definition of a method declared native cannot be found by the Java Virtual Machine.
UnsupportedClassVersionError	An UnsupportedClassVersionError is thrown when the Java Virtual Machine determines it does not support the major and minor version numbers in the class file it is attempting to read.
VerifyError	A VerifyError is thrown if there is a security problem or internal inconsistency in a class file as detected by the "verifier."
VirtualMachineError	A VirtualMachineError or its subclasses are thrown to indicate there is something wrong with the Java Virtual Machine or that it does not have the resources needed for it to continue execution.
