I want to define one application level UncaughtExceptionHandler in my Java application that is called if an uncaught exception is thrown in one thread of my application. I know that is possible define an uncaught exception for a group of thread (ThreadGroup) and i'm actually using it, but i want to define a global uncaught exception for threads that don't have defined their own uncaught exception handler or that are not associated to a group of threads that have a default exception handler defined.
So for example i wanna reach something like this :
1° LEVEL ---> Call thread own UncaughtExceptionHandler ---> 2° LEVEL Call Thread Group UncaughtExceptionHandler ---> 3° LEVEL Call application(default) UncaughtExceptionHandler
In simple terms i want to override the default UncaughtExceptionHandler and define my own handler instead of print the stack trace on the System.err
(that is the default behaviour).
For example in C# .NET i do something similar handling the unhandled and thread exception event handler in the Main() method of the application :
AppDomain.CurrentDomain.UnhandledException += new UnhandledExceptionEventHandler(CurrentDomain_UnhandledException);
Application.ThreadException += new System.Threading.ThreadExceptionEventHandler(Application_ThreadException);
Can be done even in Java ?
How can i override the default UncaughtExceptionHandler in Java ?
