Syntax

[Android.Runtime.Register("java/lang/Throwable", DoNotGenerateAcw=true)]
public class Throwable : Exception, Java.IO.ISerializable, IDisposable

Remarks

The superclass of all classes which can be thrown by the VM. The two direct subclasses are recoverable exceptions (Exception) and unrecoverable errors (Error). This class provides common methods for accessing a string message which provides extra information about the circumstances in which the Throwable was created (basically an error message in most cases), and for saving a stack trace (that is, a record of the call stack at a particular point in time) which can be printed later.

A Throwable can also include a cause, which is a nested Throwable that represents the original problem that led to this Throwable. It is often used for wrapping various types of errors into a common Throwable without losing the detailed original error information. When printing the stack trace, the trace of the cause is included.
