So you have a child and parent classes. The child class extends from the Parent class as follows.
Normally, when overriding a method most of us just copy the same method signature from the parent class.
Here, the overridden method printName throws an Exception as its parent version of printName. This will require any codes calling your overridden method to handle the Exception.
We could change the overridden method’s signature to this.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 | @Override public void printName(String name){ // You still need to handle the exception from super.printName(name) try { super.printName(name); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } |
This will not force your calling codes to declare or handle the exception.
