Java Try Block

1. try statement

All program statements which are going to generate an exception are written inside the try block.

If an exception is found in the try block then it is thrown to particular matching catch block for handling purpose.

If any one statement generates the exception in try block then all other remaining statements are skipped and execution is jumped into the matching catch block.

Syntax

try
{
    // statements which are generating an exception.
    ....
    ....
    ....
}

Note : try block should have catch or finally block for handling an exception. We cannot write only try block.

Example

try
{
    int a=25, b=0;
    int c = a/b; // generates an exception as Divided by zero.
    System.out.println("Division is : "+c); // compiler skipes this line and jumps into catch block.
}
