throws or try/catch?

I think the difference betwteen the two is the way the exceptions are handle.

When using "throws" you must create a Exception class that must perform the actions needed when the exception is encountered. Then the function that can throw the exception must be accordingly declared :

public somefunction() throws Exception

And inside the function :

if (exceptionCondition=true)

throw new Exception

When uisng try/catch the actions that msut be performed when the exception is encountered are written inside the function.

try

{

//

}

catch (Exception e)

{

//handling exception...

}
