Constructor
new Error(message)
new EvalError(message)
new RangeError(message)
new ReferenceError(message)
new SyntaxError(message)
new TypeError(message)
new URIError(message)
These constructors create an instance of the Error class or of one of
its subclasses. The message argument is
optional.
Properties
Error and all of its subclasses define the same two properties:
- message
-
An error message that provides details about the exception. This
property holds the string passed to the constructor, or an
implementation-defined default string.
- name
-
A string that specifies the type of the exception. This property is
always the name of the constructor used to create the exception
object.
Methods
- toString( )
-
Returns a string representation of the Error (or subclass) object.
