    • registerExtractor

      protected final void registerExtractor(Class<? extends Throwable> throwableType, ThrowableCauseExtractor extractor)
      Registers a ThrowableCauseExtractor for the specified type. Can be used in subclasses overriding initExtractorMap().
      Parameters:
      throwableType - the type (has to be a subclass of Throwable)
      extractor - the associated ThrowableCauseExtractor (not null)
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if one of the arguments is invalid
    • initExtractorMap

      protected void initExtractorMap()
      Initializes associations between Throwables and ThrowableCauseExtractors. The default implementation performs the following registrations:
      Subclasses overriding this method are encouraged to invoke the super method to perform the default registrations. They can register additional extractors as required.

      Note: An extractor registered for a specific type is applicable for that type and all subtypes thereof. However, extractors registered to more specific types are guaranteed to be resolved first. So in the default case InvocationTargetExceptions will be handled by INVOCATIONTARGET_EXTRACTOR while all other throwables are handled by DEFAULT_EXTRACTOR.

    • determineCauseChain

      public final Throwable[] determineCauseChain(Throwable throwable)
      Determines the cause chain of the provided Throwable. The returned array contains all throwables extracted from the stacktrace, using the registered extractors. The elements of the array are ordered: The first element is the passed in throwable itself. The following elements appear in their order downward the stacktrace.

      Note: If no ThrowableCauseExtractor is registered for this instance then the returned array will always only contain the passed in throwable.

      Parameters:
      throwable - the Throwable to analyze
      Returns:
      an array of all determined throwables from the stacktrace
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the throwable is null

    • getFirstThrowableOfType

      public final Throwable getFirstThrowableOfType(Class<? extends Throwable> throwableType, Throwable[] chain)
      Returns the first throwable from the passed in array that is assignable to the provided type. A returned instance is safe to be cast to the specified type.

      If the passed in array is null or empty this method returns null.

      Parameters:
      throwableType - the type to look for
      chain - the array (will be processed in element order)
      Returns:
      the found Throwable, null if not found
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the provided type is null or no subclass of Throwable
    • verifyThrowableHierarchy

      public static void verifyThrowableHierarchy(Throwable throwable, Class<? extends Throwable> expectedBaseType)
      Verifies that the provided throwable is a valid subclass of the provided type (or of the type itself). If expectdBaseType is null, no check will be performed.

      Can be used for verification purposes in implementations of extractors.

      Parameters:
      throwable - the Throwable to check
      expectedBaseType - the type to check against
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if throwable is either null or its type is not assignable to expectedBaseType
