try { // some code that may throw an exception } catch (IOException e) { String message = e.getLocalizedMessage(); System.out.println("Localized message: " + message); }
public void readFile(String filename) throws IOException { try { // some code to read file } catch (IOException e) { throw new IOException("Could not read file: " + filename, e); } } public static void main(String[] args) { try { readFile("example.txt"); } catch (IOException e) { String message = e.getLocalizedMessage(); System.out.println("Localized message: " + message); } }In this example, the getLocalizedMessage() method is called on an IOException object that has been thrown and caught by the main method. This IOException was originally thrown in the readFile method, but a new message was added to the exception using the constructor that takes a message string and a cause. The localized message is then printed to the console. The getLocalizedMessage() method is a part of the java.lang package, which is included in the Java Standard Library.
