Demo Code

public class Main 
{
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {//from   ww  w .jav a2 s .  co m
      try 
      { 
         method1(); 
      }
      catch (Exception exception) // catch exception thrown in method1
      { 
         System.err.printf("%s%n%n", exception.getMessage());
         exception.printStackTrace(); 

         // obtain the stack-trace information
         StackTraceElement[] traceElements = exception.getStackTrace();
         
         System.out.printf("%nStack trace from getStackTrace:%n");
         System.out.println("Class\t\tFile\t\t\tLine\tMethod");

         // loop through traceElements to get exception description
         for (StackTraceElement element : traceElements) 
         {
            System.out.printf("%s\t", element.getClassName());
            System.out.printf("%s\t", element.getFileName());
            System.out.printf("%s\t", element.getLineNumber());
            System.out.printf("%s%n", element.getMethodName());
         } 
      } 
   } 

   // call method2; throw exceptions back to main
   public static void method1() throws Exception
   {
      method2();
   } 

   // call method3; throw exceptions back to method1
   public static void method2() throws Exception
   {
      method3();
   }

   // throw Exception back to method2
   public static void method3() throws Exception
   {
      throw new Exception("Exception thrown in method3");
   }
