/**
* The {@code Throwable} class is the superclass of all errors and
* exceptions in the Java language. Only objects that are instances of this
* class (or one of its subclasses) are thrown by the Java Virtual Machine or
* can be thrown by the Java {@code throw} statement. Similarly, only
* this class or one of its subclasses can be the argument type in a
* {@code catch} clause.
*
* For the purposes of compile-time checking of exceptions, {@code
* Throwable} and any subclass of {@code Throwable} that is not also a
* subclass of either {@link RuntimeException} or {@link Error} are
* regarded as checked exceptions.
*
* <p>Instances of two subclasses, {@link java.lang.Error} and
* {@link java.lang.Exception}, are conventionally used to indicate
* that exceptional situations have occurred. Typically, these instances
* are freshly created in the context of the exceptional situation so
* as to include relevant information (such as stack trace data).
*
* <p>A throwable contains a snapshot of the execution stack of its
* thread at the time it was created. It can also contain a message
* string that gives more information about the error. Over time, a
* throwable can {@linkplain Throwable#addSuppressed suppress} other
* throwables from being propagated. Finally, the throwable can also
* contain a <i>cause</i>: another throwable that caused this
* throwable to be constructed. The recording of this causal information
* is referred to as the <i>chained exception</i> facility, as the
* cause can, itself, have a cause, and so on, leading to a "chain" of
* exceptions, each caused by another.
*
* <p>One reason that a throwable may have a cause is that the class that
* throws it is built atop a lower layered abstraction, and an operation on
* the upper layer fails due to a failure in the lower layer. It would be bad
* design to let the throwable thrown by the lower layer propagate outward, as
* it is generally unrelated to the abstraction provided by the upper layer.
* Further, doing so would tie the API of the upper layer to the details of
* its implementation, assuming the lower layer's exception was a checked
* exception. Throwing a "wrapped exception" (i.e., an exception containing a
* cause) allows the upper layer to communicate the details of the failure to
* its caller without incurring either of these shortcomings. It preserves
* the flexibility to change the implementation of the upper layer without
* changing its API (in particular, the set of exceptions thrown by its
* methods).
*
* <p>A second reason that a throwable may have a cause is that the method
* that throws it must conform to a general-purpose interface that does not
* permit the method to throw the cause directly. For example, suppose
* a persistent collection conforms to the {@link java.util.Collection
* Collection} interface, and that its persistence is implemented atop
* {@code java.io}. Suppose the internals of the {@code add} method
* can throw an {@link java.io.IOException IOException}. The implementation
* can communicate the details of the {@code IOException} to its caller
* while conforming to the {@code Collection} interface by wrapping the
* {@code IOException} in an appropriate unchecked exception. (The
* specification for the persistent collection should indicate that it is
* capable of throwing such exceptions.)
*
* <p>A cause can be associated with a throwable in two ways: via a
* constructor that takes the cause as an argument, or via the
* {@link #initCause(Throwable)} method. New throwable classes that
* wish to allow causes to be associated with them should provide constructors
* that take a cause and delegate (perhaps indirectly) to one of the
* {@code Throwable} constructors that takes a cause.
*
* Because the {@code initCause} method is public, it allows a cause to be
* associated with any throwable, even a "legacy throwable" whose
* implementation predates the addition of the exception chaining mechanism to
* {@code Throwable}.
*
* <p>By convention, class {@code Throwable} and its subclasses have two
* constructors, one that takes no arguments and one that takes a
* {@code String} argument that can be used to produce a detail message.
* Further, those subclasses that might likely have a cause associated with
* them should have two more constructors, one that takes a
* {@code Throwable} (the cause), and one that takes a
* {@code String} (the detail message) and a {@code Throwable} (the
* cause).

* at Junk.a(Junk.java:13)
* at Junk.main(Junk.java:4)
* Caused by: MidLevelException: LowLevelException
* at Junk.c(Junk.java:23)

* Caused by: LowLevelException
* at Junk.e(Junk.java:30)
* at Junk.d(Junk.java:27)
* at Junk.c(Junk.java:21)
* ... 3 more
* </pre>
* Note the presence of lines containing the characters {@code "..."}.
* These lines indicate that the remainder of the stack trace for this
* exception matches the indicated number of frames from the bottom of the
* stack trace of the exception that was caused by this exception (the
* "enclosing" exception). This shorthand can greatly reduce the length
* of the output in the common case where a wrapped exception is thrown
* from same method as the "causative exception" is caught. The above
* example was produced by running the program:
* <pre>
* public class Junk {
* public static void main(String args[]) {
* try {
* a();
* } catch(HighLevelException e) {
* e.printStackTrace();
* }
* }

* HighLevelException(Throwable cause) { super(cause); }
* }
*
* class MidLevelException extends Exception {
* MidLevelException(Throwable cause) { super(cause); }
* }
*
* class LowLevelException extends Exception {
* }
* </pre>
* As of release 7, the platform supports the notion of
* <i>suppressed exceptions</i> (in conjunction with the {@code
* try}-with-resources statement). Any exceptions that were
* suppressed in order to deliver an exception are printed out
* beneath the stack trace. The format of this information
* depends on the implementation, but the following example may be
* regarded as typical:
*
* <pre>
* Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Exception: Something happened
* at Foo.bar(Foo.java:10)
* at Foo.main(Foo.java:5)
* Suppressed: Resource$CloseFailException: Resource ID = 0
* at Resource.close(Resource.java:26)
* at Foo.bar(Foo.java:9)
* ... 1 more
* </pre>
* Note that the "... n more" notation is used on suppressed exceptions
* just at it is used on causes. Unlike causes, suppressed exceptions are
* indented beyond their "containing exceptions."
*
* <p>An exception can have both a cause and one or more suppressed
* exceptions:
* <pre>
* Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Exception: Main block
* at Foo3.main(Foo3.java:7)
* Suppressed: Resource$CloseFailException: Resource ID = 2
* at Resource.close(Resource.java:26)
* at Foo3.main(Foo3.java:5)
* Suppressed: Resource$CloseFailException: Resource ID = 1
* at Resource.close(Resource.java:26)
* at Foo3.main(Foo3.java:5)
* Caused by: java.lang.Exception: I did it
* at Foo3.main(Foo3.java:8)
* </pre>
* Likewise, a suppressed exception can have a cause:
* <pre>
* Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Exception: Main block
* at Foo4.main(Foo4.java:6)
* Suppressed: Resource2$CloseFailException: Resource ID = 1
* at Resource2.close(Resource2.java:20)
* at Foo4.main(Foo4.java:5)

/**
* Appends the specified exception to the exceptions that were
* suppressed in order to deliver this exception. This method is
* thread-safe and typically called (automatically and implicitly)
* by the {@code try}-with-resources statement.
*
* <p>The suppression behavior is enabled <em>unless</em> disabled
* {@linkplain #Throwable(String, Throwable, boolean, boolean) via
* a constructor}. When suppression is disabled, this method does
* nothing other than to validate its argument.
*
* <p>Note that when one exception {@linkplain
* #initCause(Throwable) causes} another exception, the first
* exception is usually caught and then the second exception is
* thrown in response. In other words, there is a causal
* connection between the two exceptions.
*
* In contrast, there are situations where two independent
* exceptions can be thrown in sibling code blocks, in particular
* in the {@code try} block of a {@code try}-with-resources
* statement and the compiler-generated {@code finally} block
* which closes the resource.
*
* In these situations, only one of the thrown exceptions can be
* propagated. In the {@code try}-with-resources statement, when
* there are two such exceptions, the exception originating from
* the {@code try} block is propagated and the exception from the
* {@code finally} block is added to the list of exceptions
* suppressed by the exception from the {@code try} block. As an
* exception unwinds the stack, it can accumulate multiple
* suppressed exceptions.
*
* <p>An exception may have suppressed exceptions while also being
* caused by another exception. Whether or not an exception has a
* cause is semantically known at the time of its creation, unlike
* whether or not an exception will suppress other exceptions
* which is typically only determined after an exception is
* thrown.
*
* <p>Note that programmer written code is also able to take
* advantage of calling this method in situations where there are
* multiple sibling exceptions and only one can be propagated.
*
* @param exception the exception to be added to the list of
* suppressed exceptions

* throwable; a throwable cannot suppress itself.
