InstantiationException

InstantiationException is a checked exception in Java that signals an attempt to instantiate an abstract class or an interface. It can also occur when there is a problem with the constructor of a class, such as the constructor being inaccessible or throwing an exception itself during instantiation. This exception is typically thrown by the Class.newInstance() method or by the Constructor.newInstance() method when an instance of a class cannot be created. To handle InstantiationException, you would typically use a try-catch block. Within the catch block, you can log the error, provide a default object, or inform the user about the failure. Common causes include trying to instantiate an abstract class, an interface, or a class whose constructor is not visible or throws an error. The exception is part of the java.lang package.
