LinkageError

open class LinkageError : Error
BootstrapMethodError

Thrown to indicate that an invokedynamic instruction or a dynamic constant failed to resolve its bootstrap method and arguments, or for invokedynamic instruction the bootstrap method has failed to provide a call site with a target of the correct method type, or for a dynamic constant the bootstrap method has failed to provide a constant value of the required type.

ClassCircularityError

Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine detects a circularity in the superclass hierarchy of a class being loaded.

ClassFormatError

Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine attempts to read a class file and determines that the file is malformed or otherwise cannot be interpreted as a class file.

ExceptionInInitializerError

Signals that an unexpected exception has occurred in a static initializer.

IncompatibleClassChangeError

Thrown when an incompatible class change has occurred to some class definition.

NoClassDefFoundError

Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine or a ClassLoader instance tries to load in the definition of a class (as part of a normal method call or as part of creating a new instance using the new expression) and no definition of the class could be found.

UnsatisfiedLinkError

Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine cannot find an appropriate native-language definition of a method declared native.

VerifyError

Thrown when the "verifier" detects that a class file, though well formed, contains some sort of internal inconsistency or security problem.

AbstractMethodError

Thrown when an application tries to call an abstract method.

GenericSignatureFormatError

Thrown when a syntactically malformed signature attribute is encountered by a reflective method that needs to interpret the generic signature information for a type, method or constructor.

IllegalAccessError

Thrown if an application attempts to access or modify a field, or to call a method that it does not have access to.

InstantiationError

Thrown when an application tries to use the Java new construct to instantiate an abstract class or an interface.

NoSuchFieldError

Thrown if an application tries to access or modify a specified field of an object, and that object no longer has that field.

NoSuchMethodError

Thrown if an application tries to call a specified method of a class (either static or instance), and that class no longer has a definition of that method.

UnsupportedClassVersionError

Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine attempts to read a class file and determines that the major and minor version numbers in the file are not supported.

Subclasses of LinkageError indicate that a class has some dependency on another class; however, the latter class has incompatibly changed after the compilation of the former class.
