Question: 11 -

Which statement is true?

A. catch(X x) can catch subclasses of X where X is a subclass of Exception. B. The Error class is a RuntimeException. C. Any statement that can throw an Error must be enclosed in a try block. D. Any statement that can throw an Exception must be enclosed in a try block.

D

A

C

B

Answer:

A

Solution:

Option A is correct. If the class specified in the catch clause does have subclasses, any exception object that subclasses the specified class will be caught as well.

Option B is wrong. The error class is a subclass of Throwable and not Runtime Exception.

Option C is wrong. You do not catch this class of error.

Option D is wrong. An exception can be thrown to the next method higher up the call stack.
