Handy class for wrapping runtime Exceptions with a root cause.

This class is abstract to force the programmer to extend the class. getMessage will include nested exception information; printStackTrace and other like methods will delegate to the wrapped exception, if any.

The similarity between this class and the NestedCheckedException class is unavoidable, as Java forces these two classes to have different superclasses (ah, the inflexibility of concrete inheritance!).

 
 public abstract class NestedRuntimeException extends RuntimeException {

Use serialVersionUID from Spring 1.2 for interoperability
 
 	private static final long serialVersionUID = 5439915454935047936L;


Construct a NestedRuntimeException with the specified detail message.

Parameters:
msg the detail message
 
 	public NestedRuntimeException(String msg) {
 		super(msg);
 	}

Construct a NestedRuntimeException with the specified detail message and nested exception.

Parameters:
msg the detail message
cause the nested exception
 
 	public NestedRuntimeException(String msgThrowable cause) {
 		super(msgcause);
 	}


Return the detail message, including the message from the nested exception if there is one.
 
 	public String getMessage() {
 		return NestedExceptionUtils.buildMessage(super.getMessage(), getCause());
 	}


Retrieve the innermost cause of this exception, if any.

Returns:
the innermost exception, or null if none
Since:
2.0
 
 	public Throwable getRootCause() {
 		Throwable rootCause = null;
 		Throwable cause = getCause();
 		while (cause != null && cause != rootCause) {
 			rootCause = cause;
 			cause = cause.getCause();
 		}
 		return rootCause;
 	}

Retrieve the most specific cause of this exception, that is, either the innermost cause (root cause) or this exception itself.

Differs from getRootCause() in that it falls back to the present exception if there is no root cause.

Returns:
the most specific cause (never null)
Since:
2.0.3
 
 		Throwable rootCause = getRootCause();
 		return (rootCause != null ? rootCause : this);
 	}

Check whether this exception contains an exception of the given type: either it is of the given class itself or it contains a nested cause of the given type.

Parameters:
exType the exception type to look for
Returns:
whether there is a nested exception of the specified type
	public boolean contains(Class exType) {
		if (exType == null) {
			return false;
		}
		if (exType.isInstance(this)) {
			return true;
		}
		Throwable cause = getCause();
		if (cause == this) {
			return false;
		}
		if (cause instanceof NestedRuntimeException) {
			return ((NestedRuntimeExceptioncause).contains(exType);
		}
		else {
			while (cause != null) {
				if (exType.isInstance(cause)) {
					return true;
				}
				if (cause.getCause() == cause) {
					break;
				}
				cause = cause.getCause();
			}
			return false;
		}
