Compile Time Error And Runtime Error In C
my prof slides on ploymorphism, I see this piece of code with a couple of comments: discountVariable = //will produce (DiscountSale)saleVariable;//run-time error discountVariable = saleVariable //will produce //compiler error As you can see, it says in the first casting statement that it'll produce run-time error and in the other one it says it'll produce compiler error. What makes these errors? and how they differ from each other? java compiler-errors share|improve this question edited Nov 16 '12 at 21:10 The Unfun Cat compile time error and runtime error in java 4,25374065 asked Feb 27 '12 at 20:31 AbdullahR 1982414 marked as duplicate by assyliasjava Users with the java badge can single-handedly close java questions as duplicates and reopen them as needed.

That guy explained it in a simple way that can be easy to understand to a naive programmer like me. –AbdullahR Feb 27 '12 at 20:54 Did you read the stackoverflow.com/faq ? –user647772 Feb 27 '12 at 21:00 Thank you AbdullahR, I hoped that from my example you could comprehend the difference and extrude the information you needed for your homework without me handing you the answer you need for your homework directly. –jwddixon Feb 27 '12 at 22:52 add a comment| 10 Answers 10 active oldest votes up vote 16 down vote accepted A run time error will only occur when the code is actually running. These are the most difficult - and lead to program crashes and bugs in your code which can be hard to track down. An example mi

It is one of the hardest concepts to learn, especially for people without much background in programming languages. To approach this problem, I find it helpful to ask What invariants does the program satisfy? What can go wrong in this phase? If the phase succeeds, what are the postconditions (what do we know)? What are the inputs and outputs, if any? Compile time The program need not satisfy any invariants. In fact, it needn't be a well-formed program at all. You could feed this HTML to the compiler and watch it barf... What can go wrong at compile time: Syntax errors Typechecking errors (Rarely) compiler crashes If the compiler succeeds, what do we know? The program was well formed---a meaningful program in whatever language. It's possible to start running the program. (The program might fail immediately, but at least we can try.) What are the inputs and outputs? Input was the program being compiled, plus any header files, interfaces, libraries, or other voodoo that it needed to import in order to get compiled. Output is hopefully assembly code or relocatable object code or even an executable progr

Unexpected things will happen: part of the fun comes from figuring out why! Compiler errors are errors that Flash catches while it's trying to compile time error your application, preventing it from finishing compilation. On the other hand, runtime errors are warnings that Flash triggers to you after the application is compiled (and it's already running) that it didn't catch before. It is also important to know that these two panels are not visible to the end user. What are compiling errors? Compiling errors happen when you build your application, and there are mistakes that Flash knows are mistakes. For example, you assign something the wrong value, compile time error you type something incorrectly, you missed a parameter, or you added too many things. Flash will know that you made an error or did something that you didn't mean to do: it will give you a warning. All of the errors are related to your mistakes in syntax (typing errors, wrong arguments or the like.) They will be put into your compiling errors panel as soon as Flash tries to compile your application into an .SWF file. Any such error will prevent you from completing your compiling. What is a runtime error? Run-time errors, on the other hand, happen after your application is compiled and running. If Flash hits an unexpected something (could be anything) as your application is running it will warn/announce it to you. For example, if it couldn't find a file that you tried to load, it triggers a runtime error letting you know about it in the output panel (well true only for us as we are working in the Flash editor.) So, on the fly, flash will output into the output panel warnings and errors that it didn't catch during compilation. Additionally, you can send messages to the output panel as you're trying to run your application. It is also important to know that the output panel and compiling error panels are not visible to the end user, but programmers will be able to see your output panel if you do
Fatal Errors Logic Errors Note that the error messages shown below may be specific to our compiler/linker or machines. Nonetheless, other systems and compilers will provide similar information. Compiler Messages When the compiler is compiling your code (i.e., converting your code into instructions the machine understands), it will report problems that it finds in your code. Aside: Here, we are being technical and refer to compiling as the stage before linking. Linking is when all the compiled pieces of a program and the libraries it uses (e.g., for cin) are put together to form an executable. Often, compiling and linking together are just referred to as compiling. There are two severities of messages the compiler can give: Compiler Warnings A compiler warning indicates you've done something bad, but not something that will prevent the code from being compiled. You should fix whatever causes warnings since they often lead to other problems that will not be so easy to find. Example: Your code calls the pow() (raise to a power) library function, but you forgot to include math.h. Because you've supplied no prototype for the pow() function (its in math.h), the compiler warns you that it assumes pow() returns an int and that it assumes nothing about pow()'s parameters: somefile.cpp:6: warning: implicit declaration of function `int pow(...)' This is a problem since pow() actually returns a double. In addition, the compiler can't type-check (and possibly convert) values passed to pow() if it doesn't know how many and what type those parameters are supposed to be. Note: The compiler will label warnings with the word warning so that you can distinguish them from errors. Compiler Errors A compiler error indicates something that must be fixed before the code can be compiled. Example: You forget a semi-colon (;) at the end of a statement and the compiler reports: somefile.cpp:24: parse error before `something' Always remember to fix the first few errors or warnings, since they may be causing all the rest. Compiler messages usually list the file and line number where a problem occurs. Nonetheless, errors often occur on the lines prior to what the error message lists. Especial
