Class InstantiationException

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Throwable

java.lang.Exception

org.simpleframework.xml.core.PersistenceException

org.simpleframework.xml.core.InstantiationException

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class InstantiationException
extends PersistenceException

The InstantiationException is thrown when an object cannot be instantiated either because it is an abstract class or an interface. Such a situation can arise if a serializable field is an abstract type and a suitable concrete class cannot be found. Also, if an override type is not assignable to the field type this is thrown, for example if an XML element list is not a collection.
