java.lang

Class InterruptedException

java.lang.Object extended by java.lang.Throwable extended by java.lang.Exception extended by java.lang.InterruptedException

All Implemented Interfaces:

Thrown when a thread is waiting, sleeping, or otherwise occupied, and the thread is interrupted, either before or during the activity.

if (Thread.interrupted()) // Clears interrupted status! throw new InterruptedException();
