NoHttpResponseException	Signals that the target server failed to respond with a valid HTTP response.
ObjectStreamException	Signals some sort of problem during either serialization or deserialization of objects.
ProtocolException	Signals that either a connection attempt to a socket of the wrong type, the application of an unsupported operation or that a general error in the underlying protocol has occurred.
SSLException	The base class for all SSL related exceptions.
SocketException	This `SocketException` may be thrown during socket creation or setting options, and is the superclass of all other socket related exceptions.
SyncFailedException	Signals that the `sync()` method has failed to complete.
TagLostException
UTFDataFormatException	Signals that an incorrectly encoded UTF-8 string has been encountered, most likely while reading some `DataInputStream`.

AsynchronousCloseException	An `AsynchronousCloseException` is thrown when the underlying channel for an I/O operation is closed by another thread.
BindException	A `BindException` is thrown when a process cannot bind a local address/port, either because it is already bound or reserved by the OS.
ClosedByInterruptException	A `ClosedByInterruptException` is thrown when a thread is interrupted in a blocking I/O operation.
ConnectException	A `ConnectException` is thrown if a connection cannot be established to a remote host on a specific port.
ConnectTimeoutException	A timeout while connecting to an HTTP server or waiting for an available connection from an HttpConnectionManager.
ConnectionPoolTimeoutException	A timeout while waiting for an available connection from a connection manager.
HttpHostConnectException	A `ConnectException` that specifies the `HttpHost` that was being connected to.
HttpResponseException	Signals a non 2xx HTTP response.
InvalidClassException	Signals a problem during the serialization or or deserialization of an object.
InvalidObjectException	Signals that, during deserialization, the validation of an object has failed.
JarException	This runtime exception is thrown when a problem occurs while reading a JAR file.
MalformedInputException	A `MalformedInputException` is thrown when a malformed input is encountered, for example if a byte sequence is illegal for the given charset.
NoRouteToHostException	The `NoRouteToHostException` will be thrown while attempting to connect to a remote host but the host cannot be reached for instance because of a badly configured router or a blocking firewall.
NotActiveException	Signals that a serialization-related method has been invoked in the wrong place.
NotSerializableException	Signals that an object that is not serializable has been passed into the `ObjectOutput.writeObject()` method.
OptionalDataException	Signals that the `ObjectInputStream` class encountered a primitive type (`int`, `char` etc.) instead of an object instance in the input stream.
PortUnreachableException	This `PortUnreachableException` will be thrown if an `ICMP_Port_Unreachable` message has been received.
SSLHandshakeException	The exception that is thrown when a handshake could not be completed successfully.
SSLKeyException	The exception that is thrown when an invalid SSL key is encountered.
SSLPeerUnverifiedException	The exception that is thrown when the identity of a peer has not beed verified.
SSLProtocolException	The exception that is thrown when an error in the operation of the SSL protocol is encountered.
SocketTimeoutException	This exception is thrown when a timeout expired on a socket `read` or `accept` operation.
StreamCorruptedException	Signals that the `readObject()` method could not read an object due to missing information (for example, a cyclic reference that doesn't match a previous instance, or a missing class descriptor for the object to be loaded).
UnmappableCharacterException	An `UnmappableCharacterException` is thrown when an unmappable character for the given charset is encountered.
WriteAbortedException	Signals that the `readObject()` method has detected an exception marker in the input stream.

Class Overview

Signals a general, I/O-related error. Error details may be specified when calling the constructor, as usual. Note there are also several subclasses of this class for more specific error situations, such as FileNotFoundException or EOFException.
