Avoiding stack overflows are nearly always better then trying to handle the exception. –Corey Sunwold Jun 4 '09 at 16:29 7 Ahh, the irony of that question on a website with this name... –Not Sure Jun 4 '09 at 16:30 55 Stop overflowing the stack. –Pesto Jun 4 '09 at 16:30 2 Throw to StackOverflow.com You have handled StackOverflowError correctly, by publishing to StackOverflow!!! –chandpriyankara Jun 1 '13 at 5:56 | show 2 more comments 13 Answers 13 active oldest votes up vote 13 down vote accepted I'm not sure what you mean with "handle". You can certainly catch that error: public class Example { public static void endless() { endless(); } public static void main(String args[]) { try { endless(); } catch(StackOverflowError t) { // more general: catch(Error t) // anything: catch(Throwable t) System.out.println("Caught "+t); t.printStackTrace(); } System.out.println("After the error..."); } } but that is most likely a bad idea, unless you know exactly what you are doing. share|improve this answer edited Dec 3 '14 at 11:54 Eng.Fouad 67.6k40189295 answered Jun 4 '09 at 16:51 Huxi 3,3552228 3 Handling Exception means want to proceed further after ignori

The stack typically lives at the upper end of your address space and as it is used up it heads towards the bottom of the address space (i.e. towards zero). Your process also has a heap, which lives at the bottom end of your process. As you allocate memory this heap can grow towards the upper end of your address space. As you can see, there is the potential for the heap to "collide" with the stack (a bit like tectonic plates!!!). The common cause for a stack overflow is a bad recursive call. Typically this is caused when your recursive functions doesn't have the correct termination condition, so it ends up calling itself forever. However, with GUI programming it's possible to generate indirect recursion. For example, your app may be handling paint messages and whilst processing them it may call a function that causes the system to send another paint message. Here you've not explicitly called yourself, but the OS/VM has done it for you. To deal with them you'll need to examine your code. If you've got functions that cal

But if you have a test case that might fail once in a 100 times, perhaps a race condition in AWTMulticaster as in my case, then you want to improve the diagnostics. The problem stack overflow error is that by default the VM won't any elements in a stack trace after the first 1024 entries. (At least for JDK 6) So if you run the following trivial example:package other; public class Overflow { public static final void call(double a, double b, double c, double d) { call(a,b,c,d); } public static void main(String[] args) { call(0,0,0,0); } } The output will stop before you get to the cause of the problem, making it very hard to resolve the issue.> java other.Overflow Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StackOverflowError at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) [ lots of lines removed ] at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) at other.Overflow.call(Overflow.java:7) Process exited with exit code 1.
