Class XPathException

org.w3c.dom.xpath.XPathException

All Implemented Interfaces:: Serializable

public class XPathException extends RuntimeException

A new exception has been created for exceptions specific to these XPath interfaces. See also Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 XPath Specification, Version 1.0, W3C Working Group Note 26 February 2004 Note that this class came from Document Object Model (DOM) Level 3 XPath Specification, Working Draft 20 August 2002 where the values of INVALID_EXPRESSION_ERR and TYPE_ERR are 1 and 2 respectively (instead of 51 and 52 as in the 2004 version).

Since:

1.4, DOM Level 3

`String`	`getMessage()`	Returns the detail message string of this throwable.
`StackTraceElement[]`	`getStackTrace()`	Provides programmatic access to the stack trace information printed by `Throwable.printStackTrace()`.

`void`	`printStackTrace()`	Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the standard error stream.
`void`	`printStackTrace(PrintStream s)`	Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the specified print stream.
`void`	`printStackTrace(PrintWriter s)`	Prints this throwable and its backtrace to the specified print writer.
`void`	`setStackTrace(StackTraceElement[] stackTrace)`	Sets the stack trace elements that will be returned by `Throwable.getStackTrace()` and printed by `Throwable.printStackTrace()` and related methods.

`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)`	Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`protected void`	`finalize()`	Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version. Finalization is deprecated and subject to removal in a future release.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()`	Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()`	Returns a hash code value for this object.
`final void`	`notify()`	Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()`	Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`wait()`	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis)`	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)`	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
