[duplicate] up vote 14 down vote favorite 7 This question already has an answer here: Runtime vs Compile time 19 answers In one of 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 compile time error in c 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 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 exam

A compile time error is an error that is detected by the compiler. Common causes for compile time errors include: Syntax errors such as missing semi-colon or use of a reserved keyword (such as 'class'). When you try and access a variable that is not in scope. When you declare multiple objects with the same name. If the compiler detects any errors during compilation it will fail to build a new assembly (or class file in Java). Even if your code has no compile time errors, errors can still occur on run-time. Errors such as 'logic errors' and 'runtime errors'. A good example of a runtime error is as followed: Pretend you're going to store an item in an array at index 5 but the array's size is only 4. The compiler won't detect an error here because it understands that the array size is subject to change but on run-time you'll be thrown an exception. To detect which line exactly a run-time error occurs on you can use a combination of break points in Eclipse and proper exception handling. share|improve this answer answered Oct 14 '12 at 13:08 Caster
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 https://www.cs.bu.edu/teaching/cpp/debugging/errors/ 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 time error 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) compile time error 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. Especially check the line immediately preceding where the error message indicates. Finally, not
