Constructs a new instance of SaslException with a detailed message. The root exception is null.
Params:
  • detail – A possibly null string containing details of the exception.

public SaslException (String detail) { super(detail); }
Constructs a new instance of SaslException with a detailed message and a root exception. For example, a SaslException might result from a problem with the callback handler, which might throw a NoSuchCallbackException if it does not support the requested callback, or throw an IOException if it had problems obtaining data for the callback. The SaslException's root exception would be then be the exception thrown by the callback handler.
Params:
  • detail – A possibly null string containing details of the exception.
  • ex – A possibly null root exception that caused this exception.

Returns the string representation of this exception. The string representation contains this exception's class name, its detailed message, and if it has a root exception, the string representation of the root exception. This string representation is meant for debugging and not meant to be interpreted programmatically.

Returns:The non-null string representation of this exception.
