Java OCA OCP Practice Question 658

Question

If a try statement has catch blocks for both IllegalArgumentException and ClassCastException, then which of the following statements is correct?

  • A. The catch block for IllegalArgumentException must appear before the catch block for ClassCastException.
  • B. The catch block for ClassCastException must appear before the catch block for IllegalArgumentException.
  • C. The catch blocks for these two exception types can be declared in any order.
  • D. A try statement cannot be declared with these two catch block types because they are incompatible.


C.

Note

Both IllegalArgumentException and ClassCastException inherit RuntimeException, but neither is a subclass of the other. For this reason, they can be listed in either order, making Option C the correct statement.
