E-Books →Exceptions in Java Basics, advanced concepts, and real API examples

The concept of a software exception was introduced into programming in the early 60s. Since then, it has been adopted by many languages and has evolved significantly.
It is generally accepted that exceptions help separate different concerns in programming and therefore improve manageability of code. While very few people will deny the usefulness of exceptions, there is ongoing debate on how they should be used.
This book covers the basics of Java exceptions, advanced concept, and best practices, and gives a historical overview of how exception handling in Java was and is approached. In addition, this book provides examples of real APIs with analysis on how these APIs approach and handle exceptions.
This book assumes that the reader is familiar with the basics of the Java programming language, and is able to write, compile and execute a simple program. It also assumes that the reader is able to read and understand code excerpts.
We hope you both enjoy and learn from this book.
