How can I loop through Exception getCause() to find root cause with detail message [duplicate]

问题

I am trying to call saveOrUpdate() in hibernate to save data. Since columns have unique index, so its throws ConstraintViolationException when I look through via Eclipse debugger.

Since root cause could be different for different exception while inserting data to table.
I wanted to know, how can I loop / traverse through getCause() to check what is the root cause of exception and its message.

Update:
Thanks everyone for your kind response, thing is I want output like in below image:
enter image description here
I need to access detailMessage field.
(I am really sorry If could not make my question more clear.)

Thanks.

回答1:

The Apache ExceptionUtils provide the following method:

Throwable getRootCause(Throwable throwable)

as well as

String getRootCauseMessage(Throwable th)

回答2:

I normally use the implementation below instead of Apache's one.

Besides its complexity, Apache's implementation returns null when no cause is found, which force me to perform an additional check for null.

Normally when looking for an exception's root/cause I already have a non-null exception to start with, which is for all intended proposes is the cause of the failure at hand, if a deeper cause can't be found.

Throwable getCause(Throwable e) {
    Throwable cause = null; 
    Throwable result = e;

    while(null != (cause = result.getCause())  && (result != cause) ) {
        result = cause;
    }
    return result;
}

Using java 8 Stream API, this can be achieved by:

Optional<Throwable> rootCause = Stream.iterate(exception, Throwable::getCause)
                                      .filter(element -> element.getCause() == null)
                                      .findFirst();

Note that this code is not immune to exception cause loops and therefore should be avoided in production.

回答4:

Are you asking for something like this?

Throwable cause = originalException;
while(cause.getCause() != null && cause.getCause() != cause) {
    cause = cause.getCause();
}

or am I missing something?

回答5:

Guava's Throwables provides the following methods:

Throwable getRootCause(Throwable throwable)

as well as

String getStackTraceAsString(Throwable throwable)

回答6:

} catch (Exception ex) {
    while (ex.getCause() != null)
        ex = ex.getCause();
    System.out.println("Root cause is " + ex.getMessage());
}

Were you expecting something more complicated?

回答7:

In APACHE; the implementation is like below.

The highlight is list.contains(throwable) == false

public static Throwable getRootCause(final Throwable throwable) {
    final List<Throwable> list = getThrowableList(throwable);
    return list.size() < 2 ? null : (Throwable)list.get(list.size() - 1);
}

public static List<Throwable> getThrowableList(Throwable throwable) {
    final List<Throwable> list = new ArrayList<Throwable>();
    while (throwable != null && list.contains(throwable) == false) {
        list.add(throwable);
        throwable = ExceptionUtils.getCause(throwable);
    }
    return list;
}

回答8:

Try this, you can put this function in a kind of Util class:

public static Throwable getRootException(Throwable exception){
 Throwable rootException=exception;
 while(rootException.getCause()!=null){
  rootException = rootException.getCause();
 }
 return rootException;
}

Example of usage :

catch(MyException e){
  System.out.println(getRootException(e).getLocalizedMessage());
}

回答9:

Recursively:

public static Throwable getRootCause(Throwable e) {
    if (e.getCause() == null) return e;
    return getRootCause(e.getCause());
}
