If a method is capable of causing an exception that it does not handle, it must specify this behavior so that callers of the method can guard themselves against that exception. You do this by including a throws clause in the method’s declaration.
A throws clause lists the types of exception that a method might throw.
This is necessary for all exceptions, except those of type Error or RuntimeException, or any of their subclasses. All other exceptions that a method can throw must be declared in the throws clause. If they are not, a compile-time error will result.
General form of method declaration that includes a throws clause is:
modifiers return-type method-name(parameter-list) throws Exception-list
{
//body of method
}
Here exception-list is a comma-separated list of exceptions that a method can throw.
