Throwable
is the superclass of all errors and exceptions in Java. Error
is the superclass of all errors, which are not
meant to be caught by applications.
Catching either Throwable
or Error
will also catch OutOfMemoryError
and InternalError
, from
which an application should not attempt to recover.
Noncompliant Code Example
try { /* ... */ } catch (Throwable t) { /* ... */ } try { /* ... */ } catch (Error e) { /* ... */ }
Compliant Solution
try { /* ... */ } catch (RuntimeException e) { /* ... */ } try { /* ... */ } catch (MyException e) { /* ... */ }

- MITRE, CWE-396 - Declaration of Catch for Generic Exception
- C++ Core Guidelines E.14 - Use purpose-designed user-defined types as exceptions (not built-in types)

Abstract classes should not have public constructors. Constructors of abstract classes can only be called in constructors of their subclasses. So
there is no point in making them public. The protected
modifier should be enough.
Noncompliant Code Example
public abstract class AbstractClass1 { public AbstractClass1 () { // Noncompliant, has public modifier // do something here } }
Compliant Solution
public abstract class AbstractClass2 { protected AbstractClass2 () { // do something here } }
