Hi, there
I was trying an application with some mathematic operations that would trigger
a division by zero. I tried to use an ArithmeticException to catch this, but
it does not seem to work. Does anybody has a clue about this?
I've include a small example of what I have in my code and the output
generated.
(I'm using Windows 95 and JDK beta 2)
Thanks in advance, Roberto.
class DivideByZero {
public static void main(String args[]) {
float average = 0;
try {
float sum = 123;
float zero = 0;
System.out.println("Here I go!!");
average = sum / zero;
System.out.println("This should not be printed..");
}
catch (ArithmeticException e) {
System.out.println("Exception caught!!");
}
finally {
System.out.println("Going out!!");
}
}
}
The output generated is:
Here I go!!"
This should not be printed..
Going out!!
