  • Uses of LinkageError in java.lang

    Subclasses of LinkageError in java.lang 
    Modifier and Type Class Description
    class  AbstractMethodError
    Thrown when an application tries to call an abstract method.
    class  BootstrapMethodError
    Thrown to indicate that an invokedynamic instruction or a dynamic constant failed to resolve its bootstrap method and arguments, or for invokedynamic instruction the bootstrap method has failed to provide a call site with a target of the correct method type, or for a dynamic constant the bootstrap method has failed to provide a constant value of the required type.
    class  ClassCircularityError
    Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine detects a circularity in the superclass hierarchy of a class being loaded.
    class  ClassFormatError
    Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine attempts to read a class file and determines that the file is malformed or otherwise cannot be interpreted as a class file.
    class  ExceptionInInitializerError
    Signals that an unexpected exception has occurred in a static initializer.
    class  IllegalAccessError
    Thrown if an application attempts to access or modify a field, or to call a method that it does not have access to.
    class  IncompatibleClassChangeError
    Thrown when an incompatible class change has occurred to some class definition.
    class  InstantiationError
    Thrown when an application tries to use the Java new construct to instantiate an abstract class or an interface.
    class  NoClassDefFoundError
    Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine or a ClassLoader instance tries to load in the definition of a class (as part of a normal method call or as part of creating a new instance using the new expression) and no definition of the class could be found.
    class  NoSuchFieldError
    Thrown if an application tries to access or modify a specified field of an object, and that object no longer has that field.
    class  NoSuchMethodError
    Thrown if an application tries to call a specified method of a class (either static or instance), and that class no longer has a definition of that method.
    class  UnsatisfiedLinkError
    Thrown if the Java Virtual Machine cannot find an appropriate native-language definition of a method declared native.
    class  UnsupportedClassVersionError
    Thrown when the Java Virtual Machine attempts to read a class file and determines that the major and minor version numbers in the file are not supported.
    class  VerifyError
    Thrown when the "verifier" detects that a class file, though well formed, contains some sort of internal inconsistency or security problem.

    Subclasses of LinkageError in java.lang.reflect 
    Modifier and Type Class Description
    class  GenericSignatureFormatError
    Thrown when a syntactically malformed signature attribute is encountered by a reflective method that needs to interpret the generic signature information for a type, method or constructor.
