Known Direct Subclasses

DuplicateFormatFlagsException, FormatFlagsConversionMismatchException, IllegalFormatCodePointException, IllegalFormatConversionException, IllegalFormatFlagsException, IllegalFormatPrecisionException, IllegalFormatWidthException, MissingFormatArgumentException, MissingFormatWidthException, UnknownFormatConversionException, UnknownFormatFlagsException

DuplicateFormatFlagsException	The unchecked exception will be thrown out if there are duplicate flags given out in the format specifier.
FormatFlagsConversionMismatchException	A `FormatFlagsConversionMismatchException` will be thrown if a conversion and the flags are incompatible.
IllegalFormatCodePointException	An `IllegalFormatCodePointException` will be thrown if an invalid Unicode code point (defined by `isValidCodePoint(int)`) is passed as a parameter to a Formatter.
IllegalFormatConversionException	An `IllegalFormatConversionException` will be thrown when the parameter is incompatible with the corresponding format specifier.
IllegalFormatFlagsException	An `IllegalFormatFlagsException` will be thrown if the combination of the format flags is illegal.
IllegalFormatPrecisionException	An `IllegalFormatPrecisionException` will be thrown if the precision is a negative other than -1 or in other cases where precision is not supported.
IllegalFormatWidthException	An `IllegalFormatWidthException` will be thrown if the width is a negative value other than -1 or in other cases where a width is not supported.
MissingFormatArgumentException	A `MissingFormatArgumentException` will be thrown if there is no corresponding argument with the specified conversion or an argument index that refers to a missing argument.
MissingFormatWidthException	A `MissingFormatWidthException` will be thrown if the format width is missing but is required.
UnknownFormatConversionException	An `UnknownFormatConversionException` will be thrown if the format conversion is unknown.
UnknownFormatFlagsException	An `UnknownFormatFlagsException` will be thrown if there is an unknown flag.

Class Overview

An IllegalFormatException is thrown when a format string that contains either an illegal syntax or format specifier is transferred as a parameter. Only subclasses inheriting explicitly from this exception are allowed to be instantiated.

Inherited Methods

From class java.lang.Throwable

Throwable	fillInStackTrace() Records the stack trace from the point where this method has been called to this `Throwable`.
Throwable	getCause() Returns the cause of this `Throwable`, or `null` if there is no cause.
String	getLocalizedMessage() Returns the extra information message which was provided when this `Throwable` was created.
String	getMessage() Returns the extra information message which was provided when this `Throwable` was created.
StackTraceElement[]	getStackTrace() Returns the array of stack trace elements of this `Throwable`.
Throwable	initCause(Throwable throwable) Initializes the cause of this `Throwable`.
void	printStackTrace(PrintWriter err) Writes a printable representation of this `Throwable`'s stack trace to the specified print writer.
void	printStackTrace(PrintStream err) Writes a printable representation of this `Throwable`'s stack trace to the specified print stream.
void	printStackTrace() Writes a printable representation of this `Throwable`'s stack trace to the `System.err` stream.
void	setStackTrace(StackTraceElement[] trace) Sets the array of stack trace elements.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.

From class java.lang.Object

Object	clone() Creates and returns a copy of this `Object`.
boolean	equals(Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal.
void	finalize() Invoked when the garbage collector has detected that this instance is no longer reachable.
final Class<?>	getClass() Returns the unique instance of `Class` that represents this object's class.
int	hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object.
final void	notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
final void	notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the `wait()` methods) to be woken up.
String	toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object.
final void	wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object.
final void	wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
final void	wait(long millis) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the `notify()` or `notifyAll()` method of this object or until the specified timeout expires.
