THROW
:-We have to handle the exception(we in the sense user here).
Throws
:We are asking the compiler to handle the exception raised.
Please correct if what I stated above is wrong . If wrong please tell me the correct statement.
Thanks in Adv!
I'd say that both are not exact.
throw
statement causes throwing of exception. No-one has to catch it however. For example runtime exception can be thrown without any requirement to catch them in application code.
throws
is a keyword that allows to declare that method may throw exception of specific type.
