Class NotImplementedException

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable
    public class NotImplementedException
extends java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException

    Thrown to indicate that a block of code has not been implemented. This exception supplements UnsupportedOperationException by providing a more semantically rich description of the problem.

    NotImplementedException represents the case where the author has yet to implement the logic at this point in the program. This can act as an exception based TODO tag. 

     public void foo() {
   try {
     // do something that throws an Exception
   } catch (Exception ex) {
     // don't know what to do here yet
     throw new NotImplementedException("TODO", ex);
   }
 }
    This class was originally added in Lang 2.0, but removed in 3.0.
