Class HWPFReadException

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable

public class HWPFReadException extends POIException
An exception that indicates a problem reading a doc file. Usually, a more specific exception will be wrapped as the cause.

This exception is only used by some new methods. Historically, POI has used RuntimeException for most of its exceptions, but this is not a good practice. This class is a checked class that extends Exception so needs to be explicitly caught or declared in the method signature.

Since:
5.5.0
