How to have exceptions that doesn't need to be caught in Java?
<p>I would like to throw a custom exception that will be determined at runtime. Currently I have to either add throws to the function or surround it with a try catch. What I want is for this exception to not be caught at all. It is a fatal exception and will show the programmer the error and what he can do to fix it. This is for an abstract class checking if initialization has been run first. I would like it to act like a NullPointerException, as when it occurs the program crashes.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
