What are exceptions and how to handle them?

In our work, we will concentrate on runtime errors as these are the errors that may occur in your Apache Thrift-enabled application and you can (and should) handle them.

This object inherits from the basic exception or error class, depending on the language, and contains information on the nature of the problem. The execution of the program is interrupted and the exception object is passed to the runtime system (this is called throwing an exception), which, in turn, tries to handle it.
